Readme

Epic is a simple functional language which compiles to reasonably efficient C code, using the Boehm-Demers-Weiser garbage collector (http://www.hpl.hp.com/personal/Hans_Boehm/gc/). It is intended as a compiler back end, and is currently used as a back end for Epigram (http://www.e-pig.org) and Idris (http://idris-lang.org/). It can be invoked either as a library or an application.
