#HLJS

HLJS, which stands for Hyper Lisp JavaScript, is a lisp-dialect that acts a code-as-data language to write javascript in. It allows you to write javascript the exact same way you normally would, except in lisp format.

##Installation

To install, run the following shell command:

$ npm install -g hl-js

To transcompile a .hljs file, use the following command

$ HLJS yourfilename.hljs

Or, you can use it inside your javascript

var hljs = require('hljs');
hljs.Compile('(= (var x) 4) (console.log x)');

##Guide

Here is a quick guide to the language and how it paralells to JavaScript.

###Variables and assignments

You can declare variables like this:

(var x)
(var a y z e)

and assign them like this

(= a (function () (return 3)))
(= (var d) 4)

###Operators

HLJS has all the javascript operators, like +, or -, etc.

(+ 3 4 5)
(- 3 (+ 4 5) (* 3 2 1))
(% 3 4 5 6)

HLJS also has all the logical operators and conditionals of javascript

(=== 7 true)
(== 0 0 0)
