dg

A (technically) simple language that compiles to CPython bytecode. DISCLAIMER: this project is just for fun, please don't use it for anything serious, thanks.

Requirements

CPython 3.4 or any other Python VM with equivalent bytecode (like PyPy3).

Installation

pip3 install git+https://github.com/pyos/dg

Usage

python -m dg
python -m dg file.dg argument1 argument2
python -m dg <<< 'print "Hello, World!"'
echo 'print "Hello, World!"' > dg_module.dg; python -c 'import dg, dg_module'
