not sure if you realized this but lolcode is the opposite of funny

Currently, the compiler doesn't handle anything other than simple string
constants. It needs to be enhanced to handle backslash-escaping for quotes,
control characters, and hex/octal values.

Currently, the compiler only accepts a single command-line parameter - the
name of the file to compile. It needs to be enhanced to support arguments
in the same format as the Visual Studio compilers, allowing passing the
name of the executable, other build options etc.

We need documentation - how to use the compiler, what assumptions it makes
about the LOLCode language, known issues, etc.

What steps will reproduce the problem?

1. Add something like "CAN HAS Ns1.Ns2.ClassName?"

What is the expected output? What do you see instead?

It is expected to reference that assembly not only with the compiler but in
the code itself.

Instead, I see 'Library "Ns1.Ns2.ClassName" not found.'

What version of the product are you using? On what operating system?

Newest version

Please provide any additional information below.

Y'all should just loop assemblies in the CompilerParameters in the
constructor of LOLProgram and add them to the list. Should just be a 3 line
code addition.

When invoked with a relative path, lolc tries to create an assembly with a
name that includes the path, not just the filename.

coco/r has support for outputting more helpful error messages on syntax
errors. These need to be evaluated and, if practical, implemented.

Currently, lolc still outputs warnings about deprecation, even if you
specify "HAI TO 1.0".

I'm sure that this is a noob linking/environment error. Can anyone tell me 
the proper way to configure my environment or set up my lolc.exe to 
include this library? 

When I try to compile fulltest.lol with this:
lolc fulltest.lol

I get this out put:

  fulltest.lol(3,16) : error : Library "STDIO" not found.
  fulltest.lol(4,11) : error 1: ident expected
  Failed to compile.

I'm using VS2008 to edit my lol files on a Vista machine. 
Thanks.

When I try to compile the code
HAI
I HAS A INPUT
I HAS A THING ITZ "pie"
VISIBLE "Testing Thing"
GIMMEH INPUT 
IZ INPUT LIEK THING?
YARLY
VISIBLE "U said pie"
NOWAI
VISIBLE "U IDIOT"
KTHX
KTHXBYE

I get the following errors:
test.lol(6,1) : error : Unknown variable: "IZ"
test.lol(6,10) : error : Unknown variable: "LIEK"
Failed to compile.

Is it a coding problem, or just me?

Currently, CAN HAS expands to a noop. It needs to include the specified
file by spawning another parser.

What steps will reproduce the problem?
1. Obtain cat
2. See cat get bored
3. Watch cat saunter off

What is the expected output? What do you see instead?
Sometimes Cat doesnt return

What version of the product are you using? On what operating system?
1st version, Daily

No records found

Looked around i in the source files and found a list of strings to look for, 
but some of those don't work. No matter.

I'm working out of test.lol that I found.
I'm comparing fulltest.lol with test.lol so that i can:
A) get fulltest.lol working and
B) document all the working commands.

It would be helpful if you could give me a list of working commands. :)

What steps will reproduce the problem?
1. Compile this program: http://lolcode.com/examples/gimmeh

What is the expected output? What do you see instead?
To be able to write something and then it should output it.
Instead, it says "Unknown variable : "N""

We need a comprehensive set of test cases to test the compiler, along with
an automated process to run them and check for passes.

What steps will reproduce the problem?
1. lol
2. lol
3. lol

What is the expected output? What do you see instead?

lol
What version of the product are you using? On what operating system?

Currently, arrays do not get printed properly. This needs to be fixed. We
also need to verify if there is anywhere else arrays can be iterated over
instead of treated as scalar values.

What steps will reproduce the problem?
1. Compile and run loltest.lol
2. Enter values other than 1 and 10

What is the expected output? What do you see instead?
It should count between the numbers you ask for. Instead it just counts 
from 1 to 10.

What version of the product are you using? On what operating system?
1.0.0.0

Currently, the compiler throws exceptions (during Emit()) in several places
where it should instead add to the error collection (during Process()).
This needs to be fixed.

The stdlol library, and the compiler code that references it, needs to be
modified to be more consistent about fetching dictionaries. There needs to
be a seperate method for fetching them from a local and from another
dictionary. In either case, it has to be able to update the local it's
fetching from if it cast the fetched value to a dictionary or created a new
one, so that array assignments work properly. This is currently done with a
rather hackish scheme, which causes a lot of Stloc operations when they're
not required.

What steps will reproduce the problem?
1. Drag and Drop a .lol onto lolc.exe to be compiled
OR
2. lolc.exe "c:\nondato\source\lolproject\program.lol"

What is the expected output? What do you see instead?
An .exe of the .lol file to be created. It throws an exception about no
paths being allowed in the output assembly.

What version of the product are you using? On what operating system?
SVN revision 35, Vista SP1

Please provide any additional information below.
Line 36 in program.cs in the lolc project could be changed to the following
to fix
string outfileFile = String.IsNullOrEmpty(arguments.output) ?
Path.ChangeExtension(Path.GetFileName(arguments.sources[0], ".exe")) :
arguments.output;

Ideally, the input file's path is saved and used for moving the compiled
exe when finished. 

This brings the compiler one step closer to being usable as a custom tool
in VS for compiling LOLcode projects

LOLCode.net needs an MSBuild project so we can add .lolproj projects and do
builds entirely in the visual studio environment.

Color syntax highlighting would be a further bonus.

I've downloaded the R36 package off the site, and extracted everything into
a folder. When I proceed to compile fulltest.lol on lolc.exe, it indicates
that the STDIO library is missing, and it fails to compile.

Should the STDIO library be included, or is this something we should solve
ourselves?
