Was in 'languages/miniperl' in Parrot svn repository until r12805. === Amber === Scripting language inspired by Eiffel and Ruby. Original version targeted parrot, current version is self-contained. The PMCs for amber were in the repository until 0.6.1. http://xamber.org/. === Parakeet === Parakeet was a Forth that was extremely machine specific to the Parrot VM. Parakeet also had a lot of features not found in standard Forth, like local variables, nested words and classes and (as a result) nested compile-time and run-time lexical word, class and variable scopes. Removed from the repository 'languages/parakeet' prior to 0.4.10, after having been broken since 0.0.11. Parakeet is also the name of a project the extends the Jikes RVM in order to run Parrot bytecode. See http://parakeet.wiki.sourceforge.net/. === BASIC/interpreter === BASIC interpreter was written in PASM, and used the global stack. It was last verified working in 0.0.11 before it was removed from 'languages/BASIC/interpreter' prior to Parrot 0.5.1. === Cardinal === The version at http://rubyforge.org/projects/cardinal/ has been superseded by the one in the repository. (See above) === Perl 5 === From r16836 up to r25231 'languages/perl5' served as a repository for some Perl 5 - specific functionality that was heavily used in early parrot development. === Pint === An experimental implementation of PHP. Described at http://www.akbkhome.com/blog.php/View/44/Latest_in_Vapourware_PintCompiler__dbdo.html, but no updates since August 2004, and the link to source is a 404. === Plumhead === Plumhead was the PHP on Parrot implementation. It has been renamed to Pipp. === Ruby === Removed from trunk of Parrot subversion repository. Up to revision 12805, located in 'languages/ruby'. =head2 SFL Simple functional language. A quickly abandoned attempt. See http://web.archive.org/web/20070911102734/ and http://www.acooke.org/andrew/writing/parrot/sfl.html === Span === Span can be most concisely described as Smalltalk for C++, C#, and Java programmers. It features an object system modeled on the Smalltalk object system and a language syntax designed to be easy to learn for developers of C-like languages. Last verified against parrot 0.1.11. http://homepage.mac.com/matt.kennedy/Span === (Test Anything Protocol) === A parser for the Test Anything Protocol Was located in 'languages/tap', removed in r26661. 12/15/21
