WHY THE FUCK

DO I NEED TO INSTALL > 150 MB OF RUBY LIBRARIES AND GEMSHIT TO GET YOUR FUCKING JAVASCRIPT LIBRARY TO COMPILE

because of your gay

the more intelligent question you would be asking if you had a brain is why doesnt Javascript have its own built-in libararies like Python, Ruby and Perl have. It has to do with the fact that there is no standard Javascript compiler and that most Javascript compilers are embedded in browsers

javascript doesn't compile dumbass

Welcome to the stupid world of dependencies.

Curious fact: There is over 4000 lines of entirely uncommented Modula-2 code somewhere within Firefox.

He probably mean 'to be able to compile it'. I don't like the abbreviation either, it always makes one think "get it to compile what?"

There isn't. For some ridiculous reason (incompetence), Ohloh is misidentifying m4 source files as Modula-2 (and shockingly, they don't contain any (* Modula-2-style comments *)).

This should have been obvious to you. Even Debian doesn't have a Modula-2 compiler in its repositories anymore; if Firefox contained any Modula-2 code, they would also have to provide and maintain their own Modula-2 implementation, which would have been orders of magnitude larger than the ``Modula-2'' code.
