How to use

Download and run the appropriate binary for your environment from Release.

When the program is launched for the first time, a .alice directory is created in the directory where the binaries are located, and startup scripts, etc. are installed.

If invoked without any arguments, the interactive execution mode (REPL) is invoked.

If a file name is specified as an argument, the file is read and executed.

For example, to run the script file test.txt, do the following.

alice test.txt

The script file is in the following format You may also use Shibang.

print("Hello,World!");

print("What your name?");
write("Name>>");

var name = read();

print("Hello,"+name+"!");

It can also be described in a more sophisticated way.

write("What your name?\r\nName>>");
print("Hello,{0}!",read());

Ah yeah, if you consider the order in which they are executed, you can write them on a single line.

print("Hello,{1}!",write("What your name?\r\nName>>"),read());

Access to the API is done after declaring it with the using directive.

using Alice.IO;

// Write "Hello" in test.txt.
file_write_text("test.txt","Hello");

It can also be called directly by specifying a namespace.

Alice.IO.file_write_text("test.txt","Hello");

Available APIs can be found in the API browser.
