=head2 Compiling and Running
-=head3 Windows using Microsoft Visual Studio
+to use pirc as the pir compiler for parrot, use:
-To compile PIRC on windows using MSVC:
-
- nmake
-
-When running PIRC, it needs the shared library C<libparrot>; an easy way to do
-this is copy C<libparrot.dll> in the Parrot root directory to C<compilers/pirc/src>.
-
-Running PIRC is as easy as:
-
- pirc test.pir
-
-See 'pirc -h' for help.
-
-=head3 Linux using GCC
-
-The Makefile should work fine on Linux:
-
- cd compilers/pirc && make
-
-When running PIRC, it needs the shared library C<libparrot>; in order to let
-PIRC find it, set the path as follows:
-
- export LD_LIBRARY_PATH=../../../blib/lib

- ./pirc test.pir
