- 2 - Brief Description of SmallEiffel -
- SmallEiffel is the fruit of a research project done at CRIN
- (Centre de Recherche en Informatique de Nancy). SmallEiffel is
- already used by students of the University Henri Poincare'
- at Nancy (FRANCE).
- We are using Eiffel as a first langage for teaching OOP
- since 1990 (SmallEiffel is used since september 1995).
-
- SmallEiffel is already portable on UNIX, Linux, BSD, HP-UX,
- IRIX, XENIX, DOS and OS2. SmallEiffel will be soon available
- on WINDOWS 95 and Macintosh.
-
- Current distribution includes a compiler (command 'compile'),
- a pretty printer (command 'pretty') and other tools.
- An Eiffel interpretor will be added to the distribution
- in a few months (3 or 4 months).
