History
Reid Spencer c37a506d44 Make the StackerCompiler and optimizing translator by running specific 
optimizations after construction of the Module. The OptLevel argument
to the compile function controls the level of optimization.

README 

This directory contains a sample language front end for LLVM.

It is a *very* simple/crude implementation of FORTH. It has many
deficiencies but provides enough basics to give you an idea of 
what programming a new language front end for LLVM  looks like.

To keep things simple, Stacker has the following limitations:
1. Only a single, global stack is manipulated.
2. There is no interpretation, everything is compiled.
3. There's no type/bounds checking .. you're on your own.
4. There's no floating point support.
5. Only stdin can be read. Only stdout can be written. No other 
   file I/O is supported.

As such, this isn't a very useful language for anything other than
the most trivial of programs. It is, however, a good learning tool
(for both the author and the student).
