Introduction

To quote hunter.txt:

"It is perceived that one of the biggest problems in maintaining interest in programming is the above linear growth of boredom compared to the usefulness of the program, resulting in an acute loss of enthusiasm on the part of the programmers and ultimately the abandonment of the software.

"This document intends to address that by introducing a language with new models for sharing, flow control, and data manipulation, which make all dependencies in a program globally accessible and radically oblique at the language level.

"We introduce the language, which is a deterministic particle automaton based on mazespace-rewriting and critter-style message passing and, being ASCII art, is inherently graphical in notation..."

Implementation

The Perl 5 implementation of HUNTER requires the _Console::Virtual module.
