Abstract

Clanger is a powerful, yet simple, command language for the Nemesis operating system. It uses runtime type information to interface directly with operating system components. Clanger is a combination of command-line interpreter, scripting language, debugger and prototyping tool. This paper describes why such a language is possible, how it is being implemented, and outlines the language as it currently stands.
