c1r is the implementation for the C1R language on Unix machines; porting to Windows and other platforms should be fairly easy.

C1R Implementation is an implementation of C1R. Other implementations of C1R.

In fact c1r is a simple shell script that efficiently uses the already available C compiler named cc. The "Quine" task required special treatment.

#! /bin/bash

# C1R compiler

# remove HTML tags, but replace "<br />" by newlines
function removeHTMLtags() {
 sed -e 's~<br */>~\
~g' | sed -e :a -e 's/<[^>]*>//g;/</N;//ba' 
}

# unescape HTML codes: replace "&lt;" by "<" etc
function unescapeHTML() {
 sed -e 's/&lt\;/</g;s/&gt\;/>/g;s/&nbsp\;/ /g;s/&#160\;/ /g;s/&#xA0\;/ /g;s/&quot\;/"/g;s/&#40\;/(/g;s/&#41\;/)/g;s/&#91\;/[/g;s/&#93\;/]/g;s/&#123\;/{/g;s/&#125\;/}/g'
}

A typical test session would look like:

$ echo Hello_world/Text >hw.c1r
$ ./c1r hw.c1r
$ ./a.out
Goodbye, World!
