perl-stack-return-variable

This repository contains an experimental evolution of the Perl Regex Engine (v5.44+ / blead) to allow native Chomsky Type 1 processing using dynamic variable scoping.

Quick Start

1. Clone this repository.
2. Run make to compile the debug-enabled custom Perl binary.
3. Run the context-sensitive test suite:

   ./perl -Ilib tests/type1_completeness.t

Technical Proposal

For the deep architectural analysis, memory stack impact, and implementation details regarding regexec.c and regcomp.c, please read the formal RFC.md.
