| Ausführliche Beschreibung | Ideal for both complex nonnumerical applications and for situations where
users need quick solutions with a minimum of programming effort, Icon is a
high-level, general purpose programming language with a syntax similar to
Pascal and C. Its applications include: rapid prototyping, analyzing
natural languages, generating computer programs, and artificial
intelligence. (From the back cover of the book "The Icon Programming
Language," by Griswold and Griswold.)
.
This package contains the Icon executor, iconx, which is needed to execute
interpreted Icon programs. If you are starting from Icon source code (as
opposed to precompiled `ucode' files), you will also need the icont
package, which converts your Icon source into a program that iconx can
execute.
