Apertium-recursive/Bytecode

The first 2 characters of the file are the length of the longest pattern and the number of rules. Each rule begins with a byte indicating specifying the length of the rule.

[int] after the name indicates that this instruction is two characters long and the second is to be interpreted as an integer.

Name	Action
drop	pop the top of the stack
dup	push a copy of the top element
over	push a copy of the second element
swap	exchange the first and second elements
string [int]	pushes the next [int] characters onto the stack as a literal string
int [int]	pushes [int] onto the stack
pushfalse	pushes false onto the stack
pushtrue	pushes true onto the stack
jump [int]	increments the instruction pointer by [int]
jumpontrue [int]	pops a bool off the stack and increments the instruction pointer by [int] if it is true
jumponfalse [int]	pops a bool off the stack and increments the instruction pointer by [int] if it is false
and	pops 2 bools of the stack and pushes whether both of them are true
or	pops 2 bools of the stack and pushes whether either of them is true
not	logically negates top of stack
equal	push whether the first two strings popped are the same
isprefix	push whether the first string popped occurs at the beginning of the second
issuffix	push whether the first string popped occurs at the end of the second
issubstring	pushes whether the first string popped appears anywhere in the second
equalcl	equal, but ignores case
isprefixcl	isprefix, but ignores case
issuffixcl	issuffix, but ignores case
issubstringcl	issubstring, but ignores case
hasprefix	push whether the second string popped begins with any member of the list named by the first string popped
hassuffix	push whether the second string popped ends with any member of the list named by the first string popped
in	push whether the second string popped is a member of the list named by the first
hasprefixcl	hasprefix, but ignores case
hassuffixcl	hassuffix, but ignores case
incl	in, but ignores case
getcase	pushes "aa", "Aa", or "AA", depending on the case of the first string popped
setcase	pops two strings, copies the case of the first to the second and pushes the result
fetchvar	pops a string and pushes the value of the variable with that name
setvar	pops a two strings and sets the second as the value of the variable named by the first
sourceclip	pops an int and a string, pushes the value of the source-side clip identified by them
targetclip	pops an int and a string, pushes the value of the target-side clip identified by them
referenceclip	pops an int and a string, pushes the value of the reference-side clip identified by them
setclip	pops an int and two strings, sets the second string as the value of the target-side clip identified by the int and the first string
chunk	creates an empty chunk and pushes it
appendchild	pops a chunk and appends it as a child to the chunk underneath it (which remains on the stack)
appendsurface	pops a string and appends it to the target-side surface chunk underneath it (which remains on the stack)
appendallchildren	pops a chunk and appends all of its children as children to the chunk underneath it (which remains on the stack)
output	pops a chunk and appends it to the output queue
blank	pops an int and pushes the corresponding blank (or a single space if the int is 0)
concat	pops two strings, concatenates them, and pushes the result
rejectrule	abort evaluation of current rule and attempt to match a different one
distag	removes initial < and final > from the string on top of the stack (this makes compiling comparisons easier)
