This isn't correct, it relies heavily on GC.

You're right, a more hands-on approach is needed. We've discussed it a bit, and no opposition has been raised to using +q more often.

I'd guess that pulling that try-catch out of the loop would make things go much faster. Nim doesn't use 0-overhead exceptions, so setjmp needs to be called each time the try-catch is entered.

You should also use the re module, PEGs is not nearly as optimized as PCRE.

I'm personally not too happy about this, but there are restrictions on the use of underscores:

- You cannot have two underscores in a row

- You cannot have a leading underscore

Most discussions about major things occur in IRC in #nim on freenode.

It looks like mingw provides a non-installer version of the binaries, although it is (unintentionally) well hidden in the web. http://sourceforge.net/projects/mingw-w64/files/Toolchains%2...

I'd like to clarify that http://nimbuild.nim-lang.org/tut1.html is for the devel branch. You probably want to use http://nim-lang.org/tut1.html if you're going to use the newly released version.
