RapidBATCH

A general-purpose scripting language platform for automation.

About

RapidBATCH is a general-purpose scripting language. From 2001 to 2015, it targetted Windows systems as primary platform, and was sold commercially as shareware.

In 2008, this successor version 6 of RapidBATCH was started, but never got to an end. There are several reasons why this, unfortunatelly, happened.

So, this is the repository of the available and original RapidBATCH 6 source code in a state as it was in end of 2009, with some minor maintenance updates.

The repository also contains all stuff relating the last, officially released version 5.1 and a planned version 5.2 of RapidBATCH, see museum folder for details.

Building

This repository currently has only one simple Makefile

On Linux with gcc or clang, this will work:

$ git clone https://github.com/phorward/rapidbatch.git
$ cd rapidbatch
$ touch rb_comp.parser.?   # this avoids the requirement of UniCC
$ make

After that, invoke the interpreter like this

$./rb6 test/test1.rb

Examples

Example programs can be found in test/.
