Some Fun From NekoVM Specs
Few minutes ago I've read about last haxe miracle: translation from an AS2 like ECMAScript 4th programming language, haxe itself, into C++ rather than " just " JavaScript, PHP, and ActionScript 2 or 3, or Neko . NekoVM is a project I already knew before but since not a single host I know supports it, I have never investigated too much about its features but apparently NekoVM is a damn fast Virtual Machine for Neko code which is basically JavaScript with few differences/limitations.
