NAME

       lisaac - lisaac compiler

SYNOPSIS

       lisaac <input_file[.li]> [Options]

DESCRIPTION

       This  manual  page  documents  briefly  the lisaac compiler.  lisaac is the first compiled
       object-oriented language based on prototype concepts, with system  programming  facilities
       and  design  by contract.  Lisaac's developers admired both Self's flexibility and dynamic
       inheritance, and Eiffel's static typing  and  design  by  contract  features.  Seeking  to
       combine these two apparently contradictory feature sets, lisaac was created.

       The  lisaac  compiler  produces optimized ANSI C code, which can then be compiled on every
       architecture with an appropriate C compiler  which  makes  lisaac  a  real  multi-platform
       language.  Compilation  results  show  that  it  is  possible to obtain executables from a
       high-level prototype-based language that are as fast as C programs.
