Summary : Not Quite Perl (6)

License : Artistic 2.0 and ISC and WTFPL
Description : This is "Not Quite Perl" -- a lightweight Perl 6-like environment for virtual
: machines. The key feature of NQP is that it's designed to be a very small
: environment (as compared with, say, perl6 or Rakudo) and is focused on being
: a high-level way to create compilers and libraries for virtual machines (such
: as JVM and MoarVM). Unlike a full-fledged implementation of Perl 6, NQP
: strives to have as small a run-time footprint as it can, while still providing
: a Perl 6 object model and regular expression engine for the virtual machine.
