The files in this subdirectory enable people to compile Pidgin programs and
receive output as Merlin-compatible assembly files.
 
To compile a Pidgin program one must first invoke the Pidgin compiler by
running the PIDGIN file. For "macro file:" type in macro/pidgin.mac (assuming
you have the pidgin.mac file in the macro subdirectory); for "source file:"
type in the Pidgin program name, and for "output file:" type in the name of
your desired assembly output file.
 
 
For example, to compile the demo "sieve" file:
 
     macro file: macro/pidgin.mac
   program file: sieve
    output file: sieve.s
 
 
After the Pidgin compiler runs execute Merlin, then load in sieve.s and
assemble the file.
