    Hi,<br>
      The prompt of ccons looks similar to ours.<br>
      I think with few minor tweaks mainly in the prompt it would be
    possible. If we have usecase for people using it with C and
    Objective-{C|C++} I am willing to work on that.<br>

      Very cool looking. How does it compare to ccons (<a
        moz-do-not-send="true" href="http://code.google.com/p/ccons/">http://code.google.com/p/ccons/</a>),
      and any chance we could get C and Objective-C/Objective-C++
      support eventually?

              We would like to know whether it's just us finding this
              spectacular :-)<br>
              or whether there is general interest. Our aim is to get it
              included in<br>
              the clang repository.<br>
              <br>
              For us, this is just the first step; we need to integrate
              it into the<br>
              rest of our software wildlife here at CERN, and we need to
              continue to<br>
              work on robustness and features, e.g. reloading of code.
              I.e. I expect<br>
              we will maintain and continue to develop it for years to
              come.<br>
              <br>
              Here is the code:<br>
              svn co <a moz-do-not-send="true"
                href="http://root.cern.ch/svn/root/branches/dev/cling">http://root.cern.ch/svn/root/branches/dev/cling</a><br>
              <br>
              Let us know what you think!<br>
              <br>
              Best regards,<br>
              the cling team (Vassil, Philippe, Paul, Lukasz and Axel).<br>
              <br>
              (*) Yes, it's not an interpreter, it's really an
              incremental compiler<br>
              with an interactive shell with (eventually) features like
              automatic<br>
              library loading and late variable binding. But it smells
              like an<br>
              interpreter :-)<br>
