# Tigersay #
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
An implementation of the classic Perl program
|
||
|
|
[cowsay](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cowsay) in
|
||
|
|
the Tiger programming language from the
|
||
|
|
[Modern Compiler Implementation in ML/C/Java](https://www.cs.princeton.edu/~appel/modern/ml/)
|
||
|
|
books.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Mostly written for the kicks, and also for testing my group's
|
||
|
|
tiger-compiler.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
The framework we're using does not allow us to
|
||
|
|
parse commandline-arguments, so the only way to interact with
|
||
|
|
`tigersay` is to pipe into the compiled program. For example
|
||
|
|
`echo "Grrrrr" | tigersay`. For the same reasons it does not
|
||
|
|
support alternative faces.
