ibf 0.1

An interactive BrainFuck interpreter

Interactive BrainFuck

An interactive BrainFuck interpreter written in Bython. Why not?

To install from source, you must first build the Bython source into a Python package:

$ make build

Then, you move to the python folder, and run the setup script:

$ cd python
$ sudo -H pip3 install .

After installation, you run an interactive session with the ibf command:

$ ibf 
Interactive BrainFuck - ibf v0.1

Everything you input is interpreted as BrainFuck code, except for the following reserved keywords:

Command	Description
tape	Prints the current status of the tape (data cells), with the current cell in bold
pos	Prints the current position on the tape
quit	Quits the session
run	Run code from a file

You can also run prewritten BrainFuck code, either as a standalone program, or in an interactive session:

$ ibf test.bf
Hello World!
$ ibf 
Interactive BrainFuck - ibf v0.1

[Input] run test.bf
Hello World!

The run command always runs programs inline, ie the code is run on the current tape and with the current tape position as starting position. Thus, after running a program you can inspect the final state of the tape:

[Input] tape
 0 1  2   3  4  5  6 7 8
 0 0 72 100 87 33 10 0 0
