plaintext is a minimalistic and humorous programming language designed to do nothing more than output the contents of a .txt
file. If you're looking for a programming language that takes simplicity to the extreme, you've come to the right place!
- Just one command:
cat
- Supports
.txt
files as the primary (and only) source file format - Lightweight and easy to use
- Perfect for beginners, trolls, and everyone in between!
-
Clone the repository and navigate to the project directory:
git clone https://github.com/Kokecoco/plaintext.git cd plaintext
-
Run the installation script:
sudo ./scripts/install.sh
To run a cat
program, simply pass a .txt
file as an argument:
cat my_program.txt
Example:
cat examples/hello_world.txt
This will output the contents of the hello_world.txt
file.
Create a file called hello_world.txt
with the following content:
Hello, World!
Then, run it using cat
:
cat hello_world.txt
plaintext comes with a minimal standard library (stdlib.txt
) that provides some simple functionality. However, keep in mind that this is a humorous and minimalist language, so don't expect too much!
