WHINT

WHINT is the interpreter of esoteric language Whitespace - to learn about this language visit http://compsoc.dur.ac.uk/whitespace/tutorial.html. The following aspects of the language are not specified on that website, so I specify them here:

• Firstly, all non-blank characters are treated as comments and ignored, even if they are in the middle of the command - for example [SPACE]abcd[SPACE][TAB] means the same what [SPACE][SPACE][TAB] or [SPACE][SPACE][TAB].
• Secondly, heap and I/O operations which take parameters from the stack DON'T discard them but leave them on the stack.

To change the default size of the heap (1024 elements), change HEAP_SIZE value in the source code.
