A compiler for a simple language for programming the LEGO RCX or CyberMaster controllers. The language itself is "Not Quite C" and includes preprocessor and control structures very similar to the C language, but with restrictions imposed by the limitations of the RCX hardware/firmware itself. Besides compiling, nqc also provides functions for downloading the RCX firmware as well as uploading programs to and downloading from the RCX. The NQC home page includes documentation for the language itself including examples.

nwcc is a small C compiler for Unix systems under the BSDL The primary goals of nwcc currently are portability and correctness. Various C99 and GNU C features are also supported. It works with FreeBSD/OpenBSD/Solaris/Linux on 80x86, FreeBSD/Linux on AMD64, Solaris on SPARC, AIX on PowerPC, and IRIX on MIPS hardware. Cross-compilation is also supported. The x86 and AMD64 backends support two assemblers; nasm/yasm and gas. This can be useful for side-by-side assembler syntax comparison

NX is a highly flexible, Tcl-based, object-oriented scripting language. It is a descendant of XOTcl and was designed based on 10 years of experience with XOTcl in projects containing several hundred thousand lines of code. While XOTcl was the first language designed to provide language support for design patterns and to provide a highly dynamic programming environment, the Next Scripting Framework (NSF) and NX add to these features support for language-oriented programming.

Objective Caml is an implementation of the ML language, based on the Caml Light dialect extended with a complete class-based object system and a powerful module system in the style of Standard ML. Objective Caml comprises two compilers. One generates bytecode which is then interpreted by a C program. This compiler runs quickly, generates compact code with moderate memory requirements, and is portable to essentially any 32 or 64 bit Unix platform. Performance of generated programs is quite good for a bytecoded implementation: almost twice as fast as Caml Light 0.7. This compiler can be used either as a standalone, batch-oriented compiler that produces standalone programs, or as an interactive, toplevel-based system. The other compiler generates high-performance native code for a number of processors. Compilation takes longer and generates bigger code, but the generated programs deliver excellent performance, while retaining the moderate memory requirements of the bytecode compiler.

After a good number of years, we noticed that there wasn't a "non-patched" version of a csharp-mode for Emacs. There were a few, but most of them had comments that they were "in progress" or "about to merge", but then we noticed that those notices were there even after a couple of months. Then, we saw a request for a csharp-mode on the cc-mode Emacs site, so we decided to follow the rules and create one that required no patching or modification to the core cc-mode engine (which is a good thing). So, this is the C# mode.

OHugs is an approach to combine the features of functional programming languages (Haskell) with object-oriented languages. Steffen Mazanek <steffen.mazanek@unibw-muenchen.de>

Onyx is an embeddable stack-based threaded interpreted language. This port contains both a stand alone interpreter and a library that can be used to embed Onyx in an application. Extensive documentation is included.

There are a lot of XSS, a security hole typically found in web applications, caused by incorrect (or lack of) JavaScript escaping. This module is aimed to provide a secure JavaScript escaping to avoid XSS with JavaScript values. The escaping routine JavaScript::Value::Escape provides escapes q!"!, q!'!, q!&!, q!=!, q!-!, q!+!, q!;!, q!<!, q!>!, q!/!, q!\! and control characters to JavaScript unicode entities like "\u0026".

Niklaus Wirth's language Oberon-2 implemented by a german university at Kaiserslautern. More information about Oberon is available from its webpage at http://www.oberon.ethz.ch/.
