The newer version is under rewriting by pureScript named BotScript, I will use the parsing library to re-design the language, and it would be ported to drrr chatbot extension to support some TRPG game.

Markdown liked language translated to html embedded with js.

Share your game by pasting the output to your Blog !

Usage: parse [file=script.md]

# Makefile :

# tml.xml  :
#  template contained simple state machine to run script in json

# parse.hs :
#  translate script.md to json and insert it with tml.xml into output.html

# write your script into script.md
vim script.md
# then run make in shell
make
./parse
