Thyrd is an experimental, reflective, visual
programming language and environment. In Thyrd,
both data and code are stored in cells situated
in nested two-dimensional grids. All operations
the user can perform to edit the structure are
implemented as operators in the Thyrd language,
thus a Thyrd program can inspect and modify
itself or other programs in the same space.
Thyrd belongs to the Forth family of languages.
It most resembles Joy in that it uses quotation
and combinators to implement iteration and
recursion.

[For comp.lang.tcl: Thyrd also resembles
Tcl in that EIAS is a fundamental principle of
the language.]

This is the initial public release of Thyrd. It's
available at

http://thyrd.org/thyrd

The focus of this release is on introducing Thyrd
via 4 screencasts and a draft of a paper available
at the website. This initial release is somewhat
unstable, though it worked well enough to make the
screencasts. A Windows executable is provided
but Thyrd should be portable anywhere Tcl/Tk, TkZinc,
and Poet are available.

Comments are welcome, please use Thyrd's
open discussion forum on SourceForge.
