<0> OrngeTide: People even make kernels in C++. ;)
<1> i use C for cgis. and I wrote a PDF library in C so i could write my resume in pure C. :)
<1> hund, GASP
<1> most C++ based kernels don't use exceptions, at least not on multiple base cl***es.



<2> i wouldn't be surprised that perl kernel turned out faster than c++ kernel
<1> do you really think you could write a kernel in perl?
<3> hahahahahahah, a kernel in perl?
<3> im sure you COULD
<3> but, why woudl you?
<1> mental illness?
<2> there was a challenge once to crea5te a problem that can't be done in perl
<2> by factor of 1/e slower than in C
<2> OrngeTide: YES!
<4> how do you define "perl"? :-)
<1> well seeing as you can write a x86 emulator in perl, then any problem is solvable in perl:P
<1> mauke, that's a good point.
<4> I mean, there's Inline::C, DynaLoader, etc
<1> if you can just use a bunch of libraries written in C in your perl app that's hardly perl
<0> OrngeTuring: Indeed. :)
<1> hund, ahah



<5> oh noes. OT has turned into a turing machine
<1> i saw an ***embler written in bash shell script.
<4> raw machine code in perl: http://home.cs.tum.edu/~mai/stuff/japh/japh8.pl
<1> that's not all that exciting.
<3> shish...
<3> what's the name of that function which is used to get /etc/p***wd information? getpwent() ?
<3> you give it a username and it'll give you the rest...
<5> grep?
<4> OrngeTide: do you know any other languages capable of running embedded machine code?
<5> lol
<1> like if you did a perl kernel. you'd have an interesting time implementing handlers for system calls. doing context switching. and catching interrupts. but of course you'd need to actually have a perl core that could run without an OS to even run your perl kernel in.
<1> mauke, yes. C can.
<5> well, -I- thought I was funny
<4> OrngeTide: besides C :-)
<1> forth can. you have to do that to do anything in forth
<1> you directly scribble bytes into the dictionary to "compile" things in forth.
<1> as for a scripting language. i can't think of one. but i don't consider it a good feature in a scripting language. :)
