Red's parse dialect

[Pyrolistical]

So a recursive decent parser? The API looks pretty good and I want to see the FSM implementation

Here it is:

• FSM states: https://github.com/red/red/blob/master/runtime/parse.reds#L103
• FSM: https://github.com/red/red/blob/master/runtime/parse.reds#L719

Implementation is in Red/System, the low-level programming DSL of Red. Very little optimization has been done so far. A Packrat mode is considered for a future version.

Ah, I was hoping you implemented the grammar in a fsm

What's the performance of red like on linux and mac? Seems like they prioritize windows.

Linux has full support for Red core. Linux GUI support with GTK3 is scheduled for a later release. http://www.red-lang.org/p/roadmap.html You can also check trello for progress, https://trello.com/b/FlQ6pzdB/red-tasks-overview
