Quine Relay

What this is

This is a Ruby program that generates Scala program that generates Scheme program that generates ...(through 67 languages in total)... REXX program that generates the original Ruby code again.

Language Uroboros

(If you want to see the old 50-language version, see 50 branch.)

Usage

1. Install all interpreters/compilers.

If you are using Ubuntu 14.10 "Utopic Unicorn", you can perform the following steps:

First, you have to type the following apt-get command to install all of them.

$ sudo apt-get install algol68g bash bf boo bsdgames clisp clojure1.4 \
  cmake coffeescript f2c fp-compiler g++ gauche gawk gcc gforth gfortran \
  ghc ghostscript gnat gnu-smalltalk gobjc golang groovy icont iconx \
  intercal iverilog jasmin-sable libpng12-dev llvm lua5.2 make maxima \
  mlton mono-devel mono-mcs nasm neko nickle nodejs ocaml octave \
  open-cobol openjdk-6-jdk pari-gp parrot perl php5-cli pike7.8 python \
  r-base ratfor regina-rexx ruby2.0 scala scilab slsh spl-core \
  swi-prolog tcl ucblogo valac

Then, you have to build the bundled interpreters.

$ cd vendor
$ make

If you are using Arch Linux, just install quine-relay-git from AUR and run quine-relay. Report any problems as comments to the AUR package or to the respective packages, if one of the many compilers should have issues.

You may find instructions for other platforms in the wiki.

If you are not using these Linux distributions, please find your way yourself. If you could do it, please let me know. Good luck.

2. Run each program on each interpreter/compiler.

$ R --slave -f QR.R > QR.r
$ ratfor -o QR.r.f QR.r && gfortran -o QR QR.r.f && ./QR > QR.rexx
$ rexx ./QR.rexx > QR2.rb

You will see that QR.rb is the same as QR2.rb.

$ diff QR.rb QR2.rb

Alternatively, just type make.

$ make

Note: It may require huge memory to compile some files.
