Issue #19900 has been updated by rubyFeedback (robert heiler). I guess one advantage of the name "prism" is that this may be a bit easier to remember than "yarp". ---------------------------------------- Bug #19900: Rename YARP to Prism https://bugs.ruby-lang.org/issues/19900#change-104744 * Author: kddnewton (Kevin Newton) * Status: Open * Priority: Normal * Backport: 3.0: UNKNOWN, 3.1: UNKNOWN, 3.2: UNKNOWN ---------------------------------------- Following up on the discussion from https://bugs.ruby-lang.org/issues/19772#note-29, we would like to rename the YARP project to `Prism`. For the purposes of this ticket specifically, all functionality will remain the same. That is: * Prism will be a bundled gem with a native extension that will require you to `require "prism"` to access it from Ruby code. * Within CRuby, the C library will continue to be used to provide parsing/compiling functionality, under `RubyVM::InstructionSequence.compile_prism`. At the moment, this API is strictly for testing. Going forward, the C symbol prefix will be `pm_` (as opposed to the existing `yp_`). Assuming all of this is okay, I'll begin working on the rename next week. -- https://bugs.ruby-lang.org/
