Thud is a dynamic object-oriented scripting language. It is heavily inspired by both Java and Ruby. The goal of the project is to implement a very small set of language features sufficient for general scripting tasks, using syntax which is as clear as possible.

See the LanguageOverview page for some information about the language.

An initial effort to build a compiler and virtual machine has been abandoned. A new effort to build a virtual machine on top of LLVM has just begun.
