TvmJIT is a hack around LuaJIT.
The goal is a more generic VM which could be used for various dynamic languages.
tVM stands for Table Virtual Machine, table is the main structure type
in Lua.
Main differences with LuaJIT :
- the TP (Table Processing) language uses the S-expression syntax (but the semantic still Lua)
- an almost comprehensive test suite (using TAP format)
A Lua interpreter is built over TvmJIT, and it could use libraries like LPeg and lua-linenoise.
TvmJIT is already used by Shine.
