Whats the easiest way to familiarize myself with the interpreters in the kit?

For a general approach, you should start with the baseline interpreters. The language dependent code for these is found in the cll\base and pll\base directories. The language independent code is in support\base. A simple driver program, driver\demo.cpp is used for all the interpreters in the kit. To understand all of the interpreters in the kit, it is sufficient to look at just the four baseline CLL interpreters, in order to get an understanding of the four architectures used in the kit: • Start with the direct execution interpreter, dxi. The direct execution interpreter requires only two modules: the parser, dxi.syn; and the common definitions module. The common definitions module provides symbol table capabilities for all the baseline interpreters. When looking at dxi.syn, don’t worry too much about the strange syntax used to handle if statements and loop statements. • Proceed to the direct compilation interpreter. The parser, dci.syn, should be a good deal easier to follow than dxi.
