Farm

This article is a stub, which means that it is not detailed enough and needs to be expanded. Please help us by adding some more information.

Farm is an esoteric language based on brainfuck with some shortcut instructions, like changing the current pointed case to 'a' (97 in ASCII code).

As the name may suggest it, instructions are actually animal onomatopea, which can be written in french or english (some are even translated in german and dutch).

To run the program, there must be in first argument an input file containing ASCII text to be copied down with the instruction 'gloup'.

Farm was created july 2008 by two french students, and the source code of the current version of the interpreter (4.2.5 of fall 2008, maybe the final one), written in OCaml, is stored at http://perso.crans.org/~reichert/farm/index.php?lang=en.
