Perl 6
perl6 on Parrot: Revision 8

The Perl 6 Compiler for Parrot is called "rakudo", and it currently lives in the languages/perl6/ directory of the Parrot repository.

To build the perl6 compiler, first get a working copy of Parrot, then change to the languages/perl6/ subdirectory and type "make perl6". This will build the compiler into a binary called perl6, or perl6.exe, or something appropriate for your platform.

To run a program with perl6, one then issues a command like

$ perl6 hello.pl

or, to run an interactive perl6:

$ perl6

For additional build instructions, you might also have a look at this PerlMonks post.

parrot changes rapidly, and rakudo as well; if you have issues with the latest point release, be sure to try svn-latest of parrot/rakudo.
