A native compiler for a variant of Sather 1.0, Sather-K is also available from Karlsruhe in Germany. The compiler has been designed to permit the relatively easy development of a Sather interpreter. Resource constraints have not permitted its development. The Sather-K compiler is also available from this site. Module files are collections of compiler options which behave exactly if they were typed in on the command line.
Module files have no futher semantic meaning .
This permits the usage of a single uniform, unix-like syntax whether specifying options on the command line or in a module file. Module files are used to partition and organize the Sather library. Associated with each subdirectory of the Sather library is a module file, which just lists the sather and C files in that directory, as well as any modules contained within that directory. Note that path-names in a module file are relative to the location of the module file. The current convention is that all related files should be placed in a single directory and provided with a module file.
