Tutorial

Getting started

After downloading Déjà Vu, go to the directory all the files are in. Then run:

python deja.py

Now you're running the interactive interpreter (based on the one Python has). You can use it to write Déjà Vu programs of any complexity, although they won't be saved, of course. Ctrl+D quits the interpreter, and Ctrl+C breaks of the line you're currently typing, for when you change your mind or something.

Back at the command line, running

python deja.py filename

Will try to run the file "filename" as a Déjà Vu program.

Restart the interactive interpreter for the rest of this tutorial.
