   I am affraid that the best use of this paper is to forget it.   
   On one hand presentation is very naive and their "final"   
   compiler apparently does not handle things handled in ususal toy   
   compilers.  On the other hand their presentation has a lot of   
   gaps and mistakes, so that a newbie is unlikely to be able to   
   follow them.
