I've downloaded his program and tried to make it compile on an Ubuntu 16.04 machine. I've installed the following packages. libsoil1 libftgl2:amd64 racket-doc racket racket-common Since this is a test version there still are some references to his home folder in visualizations/helpers/def-painter.rkt which is easy to fix. Still I get the following error: FTGLfont->C: argument is not non-null `FTGLfont' pointer This is experimental software so I don't blame him for this of course! But I would love to try it out. I'm curious about how well this approach would handle an imperative language as opposed to a functional. I'm far from an expert on compiler design. But most compilers use ASTs internally right?
