Implement the following plan:
The occam2go transpiler can transpile the full KRoC course module to Go code that passes go vet, but the output has no main() function and string escape sequences are not converted. This means no program that uses the course module can actually compile and run.
Two changes are needed:
1. String escape sequences: Occam uses *c, *n, *t, *s, **, *", *' in string literals. These are currently passed through literally, so "Hello World*c*n" becomes "Hello World*c*n" in Go instead of "Hello World\r\n".
2. Main harness generation: Occam programs define a PROC with the standard entry point signature (CHAN BYTE keyboard?, screen!, error!). The transpiler needs to detect this and generate a func main() that wires stdin/stdout/stderr to channels and calls the entry PROC.
parser/parser.go)Add a convertOccamStringEscapes(raw string) string function (analogous to the existing parseByteLiteralValue) that converts occam escape sequences in string literals to their actual byte values:
- *n → \n (newline, byte 10)
- *c → \r (carriage return, byte 13)
- *t → \t (tab, byte 9)
- *s → (space, byte 32)
- ** → * (literal asterisk)
- *" → " (literal double quote)
- *' → ' (literal single quote)
Apply this conversion at line 2611 where StringLiteral nodes are created:
case lexer.STRING:
left = &ast.StringLiteral{Token: p.curToken, Value: p.convertOccamStringEscapes(p.curToken.Literal)}
This way the AST stores the actual string content (with real escape bytes), and the existing %q formatting in codegen will produce correct Go string literals.
codegen/codegen.go)In the Generate() function, after separating statements (around line 258), when mainStatements is empty but there are proc declarations:
Detect the entry point: Find the last top-level PROC whose parameters match the pattern: exactly 3 params, all IsChan with ChanElemType == "BYTE", first has ChanDir == "?", second and third have ChanDir == "!".
Generate the harness: Emit a func main() that:
chan byte channels (keyboard, screen, error)os.Stdout via bufio.Writer, flushes on byte 255 (the FLUSH constant from course module)os.Stderros.Stdin via bufio.Reader, sends bytes to keyboard channelWaits for writer goroutines to finish draining via sync.WaitGroup
Imports: When generating the harness, ensure os, sync, and bufio are imported. Add a needBufio flag to the Generator struct.
parser/parser_test.go): Test convertOccamStringEscapes with various escape sequences.codegen/codegen_test.go): Test that a string literal with *n produces a Go string with \n.codegen/e2e_test.go or new file): Test hello_world.occ transpile → compile → run, verifying output is Hello World\r\n.parser/parser.go — Add convertOccamStringEscapes(), use it at line 2611codegen/codegen.go — Add entry point detection, main harness generation, needBufio flag, bufio importparser/parser_test.go — Add string escape testscodegen/codegen_test.go — Add string escape codegen testcodegen/e2e_test.go (or new e2e file) — Add hello_world course module e2e test# Unit tests

I need to handle this differently — either detect the entry proc in the first pass, or restructure the generation.
Let me look at how the code is structured more carefully:

"offset": 64,

79→ }
80→
81→ return transpileCompileRun(t, expanded)
82→}
83→The helper doesn't support -D defines. The course module test needs TARGET.BITS.PER.WORD=32. Let me check how the preproc supports defines:
{
"pattern": "WithDefines|WithIncludePaths|func New",
"path": "/home/david/projects/code-associates/occam2go/preproc/preproc.go",

51-I see - TARGET.BITS.PER.WORD defaults to 64, but we need 32 for the course module. I'll need a helper that takes defines. Now let me write all the tests. I'll add:

All three tasks are complete. Here's a summary of the changes:
1. String escape conversion (parser/parser.go)
- Added convertOccamStringEscapes() method that converts occam escape sequences (*n→\n, *c→\r, *t→\t, *s→, **→*, *"→", *'→') in string literals to actual byte values
- Applied it at the StringLiteral creation site so the AST stores real string content — the existing %q formatting in codegen then produces correct Go string literals
2. Main harness generation (codegen/codegen.go)
- Added needBufio flag to Generator struct
- Added findEntryProc() — detects the last top-level PROC with 3 CHAN OF BYTE params (keyboard?, screen!, error!)
- Added generateEntryHarness() — emits a func main() with:
- Buffered channels for keyboard/screen/error
- Screen writer goroutine (reads channel, writes to stdout via bufio.Writer, flushes on byte 255)
- Error writer goroutine (same pattern, writes to stderr)
- Keyboard reader goroutine (reads stdin, sends to channel)
- Calls the entry PROC, closes channels, waits for writers to drain
- Moved statement separation before import generation so entry point detection can set import flags early
3. Tests
- parser/parser_test.go: TestStringEscapeConversion — 6 cases covering all escape sequences
- codegen/codegen_test.go: TestStringEscapeCodegen — verifies *c*n becomes \r\n in Go output
- codegen/e2e_course_test.go: TestE2E_HelloWorldCourseModule — full pipeline: preprocesses hello_world.occ with course module, transpiles, compiles, runs, verifies output is "Hello World\r\n"
Thank you, great work. Could you add an example program along the lines of what you tested above, and some documentation to allow a user to repeat the feat (transpiling and running an example program that uses the course module)? You can tell users to run the kroc checkout script that already exists to get its source code.
The user wants me to: 1. Add an example program (like hello_world) 2. Add documentation showing how to transpile and run a course module example 3. Reference the existing kroc checkout script
Let me find the existing checkout script and understand the project structure first.

2→
3→Greetings humans. This paragraph is the only part of this repo generated by a human. Everything else (code, PRs, CI) was created by LLMs (so far Claude Code Opus 4.5 and 4.6).
4→My goal as the human in this endevour was to see if I could refute posts I saw after Anthropic publicised their project to have Claude write a C compiler. I noticed many comments to the effect
5→"well that's eacy because there's many C compilers in the training data". I had the idea "well Occam is so old that there's basically nothing about it on the modern internet.
6→I had also had a long standing curiosity about the connection between Occam and go(lang) that made be curious as to whether you could build an Occam to golang transpiler.
7→This project is the result: scratching two itches -- can an LLM create a working compiler for a language that doesn't show up in its training data, and can one transpile Occam to Go.
8→Without Claude I'd never have the time to scratch that second itch. And...over to Claude:
9→
10→# occam2go
11→
12→A transpiler from Occam to Go, written in Go.
13→
14→Occam was developed in the 1980s to support concurrent programming on the Transputer. Go, created decades later, shares similar CSP-influenced concurrency primitives. This transpiler bridges the two.
15→
16→## Building
17→
18→```bash
19→go build -o occam2go
20→```
21→
22→## Usage
23→
24→```bash
25→./occam2go [options] <input.occ>
26→./occam2go gen-module [-o output] [-name GUARD] <SConscript>
27→```
28→
29→Options:
30→- `-o <file>` - Write output to file (default: stdout)
31→- `-I <path>` - Include search path for `#INCLUDE` resolution (repeatable)
32→- `-D <SYMBOL>` - Predefined preprocessor symbol (repeatable, supports `SYMBOL=value`)
33→- `-version` - Print version and exit
34→
35→## Running an Example
36→
37→Here's how to transpile, compile, and run an Occam program:
38→
39→```bash
40→# 1. Build the transpiler (only needed once)
41→go build -o occam2go
42→
43→# 2. Transpile an Occam file to Go
44→./occam2go -o output.go examples/print.occ
45→
46→# 3. Compile the generated Go code
47→go build -o output output.go
48→
49→# 4. Run the compiled program
50→./output
51→```
52→
53→Or as a one-liner to see the output immediately:
54→
55→```bash
56→./occam2go -o output.go examples/print.occ && go run output.go
57→```
58→
59→## Example
60→
61→Input (`example.occ`):
62→```occam
63→SEQ
64→ INT x, y:
65→ PAR
66→ x := 1
67→ y := 2
68→ x := x + y
69→```
70→
71→Output:
72→```go
73→package main
74→
75→import (
76→ "sync"
77→)
78→
79→func main() {
80→ var x, y int
81→ var wg sync.WaitGroup
82→ wg.Add(2)
83→ go func() {
84→ defer wg.Done()
85→ x = 1
86→ }()
87→ go func() {
88→ defer wg.Done()
89→ y = 2
90→ }()
91→ wg.Wait()
92→ x = (x + y)
93→}
94→```

155→
156→### Protocols
157→
158→Protocols define the type of data carried on a channel. Three forms are supported:
159→
160→| Occam | Go |
161→|-------|-----|
162→| `PROTOCOL SIG IS INT` | `type _proto_SIG = int` |
163→| `PROTOCOL PAIR IS INT ; BYTE` | `type _proto_PAIR struct { _0 int; _1 byte }` |
164→| `PROTOCOL MSG CASE tag; INT ...` | Interface + concrete structs per tag |
165→| `c ! 42 ; 65` (sequential send) | `c <- _proto_PAIR{42, 65}` |
166→| `c ? x ; y` (sequential recv) | `_tmp := <-c; x = _tmp._0; y = _tmp._1` |
167→| `c ! tag ; val` (variant send) | `c <- _proto_MSG_tag{val}` |
168→| `c ? CASE ...` (variant recv) | `switch _v := (<-c).(type) { ... }` |
169→
170→Sequential protocol example:

173→
174→SEQ
175→ CHAN OF PAIR c:
176→ INT x, y:
177→ PAR

181→```
182→
183→Variant protocol example:
184→```occam
185→PROTOCOL MSG
186→ CASE
187→ data; INT
188→ quit
189→
190→SEQ
191→ CHAN OF MSG c:
192→ INT result:
193→ PAR
194→ c ! data ; 42
195→ c ? CASE
196→ data ; result
197→ print.int(result)
198→ quit
199→ SKIP
200→```
201→
202→### Records
203→
204→| Occam | Go |
205→|-------|-----|
206→| `RECORD POINT` with `INT x:` `INT y:` | `type POINT struct { x int; y int }` |
207→| `POINT p:` | `var p POINT` |
208→| `p[x] := 10` | `p.x = 10` |
209→| `p[x]` (in expression) | `p.x` |
210→| `PROC foo(POINT p)` (ref) | `func foo(p *POINT)` |
211→| `PROC foo(VAL POINT p)` (val) | `func foo(p POINT)` |
212→
213→Example:
214→```occam
215→RECORD POINT
216→ INT x:
217→ INT y:
218→
219→SEQ
220→ POINT p:
221→ p[x] := 10
222→ p[y] := 20
223→ print.int(p[x] + p[y])
224→```
225→
226→### Arrays
227→
228→| Occam | Go |
229→|-------|-----|
230→| `[5]INT arr:` | `arr := make([]int, 5)` |
231→| `arr[i] := x` | `arr[i] = x` |
232→| `x := arr[i]` | `x = arr[i]` |
233→
234→Example:
235→```occam
236→SEQ
237→ [5]INT arr:
238→ SEQ i = 0 FOR 5
239→ arr[i] := (i + 1) * 10
240→ INT sum:
241→ sum := 0
242→ SEQ i = 0 FOR 5
243→ sum := sum + arr[i]
244→ print.int(sum)
245→```
246→
247→### ALT (Alternation)
248→
249→| Occam | Go |
250→|-------|-----|
251→| `ALT` | `select` |
252→| `guard & c ? x` | Conditional channel with nil pattern |
253→| `SEQ i = 0 FOR n` | `for i := 0; i < n; i++` |
254→| `PAR i = 0 FOR n` | Parallel `for` loop with goroutines |
255→
256→Example:
257→```occam
258→ALT
259→ c1 ? x
260→ print.int(x)
261→ c2 ? y
262→ print.int(y)
263→```
264→
265→Generates:
266→```go
267→select {
268→case x = <-c1:
269→ fmt.Println(x)
270→case y = <-c2:
271→ fmt.Println(y)
272→}
273→```
274→
275→ALT with guards (optional boolean conditions):
276→```occam
277→ALT
278→ enabled & c1 ? x
279→ process(x)
280→ TRUE & c2 ? y
281→ process(y)
282→```
283→
284→### Replicators
285→
286→Replicators allow you to repeat a block of code a specified number of times.
287→
288→| Occam | Go |
289→|-------|-----|
290→| `SEQ i = 0 FOR n` | `for i := 0; i < n; i++` |
291→| `PAR i = 0 FOR n` | Parallel for loop with goroutines |
292→
293→Example with replicated SEQ:
294→```occam
295→SEQ i = 1 FOR 5
296→ print.int(i)
297→```
298→
299→This prints 1, 2, 3, 4, 5.
300→
301→Example with replicated PAR (spawns n concurrent processes):
302→```occam
303→PAR i = 0 FOR 4
304→ c ! i
305→```
306→
307→### Built-in I/O Procedures
308→
309→| Occam | Go |
310→|-------|-----|
311→| `print.int(x)` | `fmt.Println(x)` |
312→| `print.bool(x)` | `fmt.Println(x)` |
313→| `print.string(x)` | `fmt.Println(x)` |
314→| `print.newline()` | `fmt.Println()` |
315→
316→## Preprocessor and Modules
317→
318→Occam programs use `#INCLUDE` to import library modules. The transpiler includes a textual preprocessor that runs before lexing, handling conditional compilation and file inclusion.
319→
320→### Preprocessor Directives
321→
322→| Directive | Description |
323→|-----------|-------------|
324→| `#INCLUDE "file"` | Textually include a file (resolved relative to current file, then `-I` paths) |
325→| `#DEFINE SYMBOL` | Define a preprocessor symbol |
326→| `#IF expr` | Conditional compilation (`TRUE`, `FALSE`, `DEFINED (SYM)`, `NOT`, `(SYM = val)`) |
327→| `#ELSE` | Alternative branch |
328→| `#ENDIF` | End conditional block |
329→| `#COMMENT`, `#PRAGMA`, `#USE` | Ignored (replaced with blank lines to preserve line numbers) |
330→
331→The predefined symbol `TARGET.BITS.PER.WORD` is set to `64` (Go always uses 64-bit integers).
332→
333→### Using Modules with `#INCLUDE`
334→
335→Create a module file with include guards to prevent double-inclusion:
336→
337→```occam
338→-- mathlib.module
339→#IF NOT (DEFINED (MATHLIB.MODULE))
340→#DEFINE MATHLIB.MODULE
341→
342→INT FUNCTION abs(VAL INT x)
343→ INT result:
344→ VALOF
345→ IF
346→ x < 0
347→ result := 0 - x
348→ TRUE
349→ result := x
350→ RESULT result
351→
352→#ENDIF
353→```
354→
355→Then include it in your program:
356→
357→```occam
358→-- main.occ
359→#INCLUDE "mathlib.module"
360→
361→SEQ
362→ print.int(abs(0 - 42))
363→```
364→
365→Transpile with `-I` to specify where to find the module:
366→
367→```bash
368→./occam2go -I examples -o main.go examples/include_demo.occ
369→go run main.go
370→```
371→
372→Output:
373→```
374→42
375→20
376→10
377→```
378→
379→A working example is provided in `examples/include_demo.occ` with `examples/mathlib.module`.
380→
381→### Generating Module Files from KRoC SConscript
382→
383→The KRoC project defines module composition in SConscript (Python) build files. The `gen-module` subcommand parses these to generate `.module` files:
384→
385→```bash
386→# Clone the KRoC repository (one-time setup)
387→./scripts/clone-kroc.sh
388→
389→# Generate a module file from SConscript
390→./occam2go gen-module kroc/modules/course/libsrc/SConscript
391→```
392→
393→This outputs:
394→```
395→#IF NOT (DEFINED (COURSE.MODULE))
396→#DEFINE COURSE.MODULE
397→#INCLUDE "consts.inc"
398→#INCLUDE "utils.occ"
399→#INCLUDE "string.occ"
400→#INCLUDE "demo_cycles.occ"
401→#INCLUDE "demo_nets.occ"
402→#INCLUDE "file_in.occ"
403→#INCLUDE "float_io.occ"
404→#INCLUDE "random.occ"
405→#ENDIF
406→```
407→
408→> **Note:** The preprocessor and module infrastructure is in place, but the KRoC course module source files themselves use several occam features not yet supported by the transpiler (abbreviations like `VAL INT x IS 1:`, `CHAN BYTE` without `OF`, `VAL []BYTE` array slice params, `SIZE`, `:` PROC terminators). Full course module transpilation is a future goal. See [TODO.md](TODO.md) for the implementation roadmap.
409→
410→## How Channels are Mapped
411→
412→Both Occam and Go draw from Tony Hoare's Communicating Sequential Processes (CSP) model, making channel communication a natural fit for transpilation.
413→
414→### Conceptual Mapping
415→
416→In Occam, channels are the primary mechanism for communication between parallel processes. A channel is a synchronous, unbuffered, point-to-point connection. Go channels share these characteristics by default.
417→
418→| Concept | Occam | Go |
419→|---------|-------|-----|
420→| Declaration | `CHAN OF INT c:` | `c := make(chan int)` |
421→| Send (blocks until receiver ready) | `c ! value` | `c <- value` |
422→| Receive (blocks until sender ready) | `c ? variable` | `variable = <-c` |
423→| Synchronisation | Implicit in `!` and `?` | Implicit in `<-` |
424→
425→### Synchronous Communication
426→
427→Both languages use synchronous (rendezvous) communication by default:
428→
429→```occam
430→PAR
431→ c ! 42 -- blocks until receiver is ready
432→ c ? x -- blocks until sender is ready
433→```
434→
435→The sender and receiver must both be ready before the communication occurs. This is preserved in the generated Go code, where unbuffered channels have the same semantics.
436→
437→### Differences and Limitations
438→
439→1. **Channel direction**: Occam channels are inherently unidirectional. Go channels can be bidirectional but can be restricted using types (`chan<-` for send-only, `<-chan` for receive-only). The transpiler currently generates bidirectional Go channels.
440→
441→2. **Protocol types**: Simple, sequential, and variant protocols are supported. Nested protocols (protocols referencing other protocols) are not yet supported.
442→
443→3. **Channel arrays**: Channel arrays (`[n]CHAN OF TYPE`) are supported, including indexed send/receive, `[]CHAN OF TYPE` proc params, and ALT with indexed channels.
444→
445→4. **ALT construct**: Occam's `ALT` maps to Go's `select` statement. Basic ALT, guards, and timer timeouts are supported. Priority ALT (`PRI ALT`) and replicated ALT are not yet implemented.
446→
447→## How PAR is Mapped
448→
449→Occam's `PAR` construct runs processes truly in parallel. On the Transputer this was hardware-scheduled; in Go it maps to goroutines coordinated with a `sync.WaitGroup`.
450→
451→### Basic PAR
452→
453→Each branch of a `PAR` block becomes a goroutine. The transpiler inserts a `WaitGroup` to ensure all branches complete before execution continues:
454→
455→```occam
456→PAR
457→ c ! 42
458→ c ? x
459→```
460→
461→Generates:
462→
463→```go
464→var wg sync.WaitGroup
465→wg.Add(2)
466→go func() {
467→ defer wg.Done()
468→ c <- 42
469→}()
470→go func() {
471→ defer wg.Done()
472→ x = <-c
473→}()
474→wg.Wait()
475→```
476→
477→The `wg.Wait()` call blocks until all goroutines have finished, preserving Occam's semantics that execution only continues after all parallel branches complete.
478→
479→### Replicated PAR
480→
481→A replicated `PAR` spawns N concurrent processes using a loop. Each iteration captures the loop variable to avoid closure issues:
482→
483→```occam
484→PAR i = 0 FOR 4
485→ c ! i
486→```
487→
488→Generates:
489→
490→```go
491→var wg sync.WaitGroup
492→wg.Add(int(4))
493→for i := 0; i < 0 + 4; i++ {
494→ i := i // capture loop variable
495→ go func() {
496→ defer wg.Done()
497→ c <- i
498→ }()
499→}
500→wg.Wait()
501→```
502→
503→### Differences and Limitations
504→
505→1. **Scheduling**: Occam on the Transputer had deterministic, priority-based scheduling. Go's goroutine scheduler is preemptive and non-deterministic. Programs that depend on execution order between `PAR` branches may behave differently.
506→
507→2. **Shared memory**: Occam enforces at compile time that parallel processes do not share variables (the "disjointness" rule). The transpiler does not enforce this, so generated Go code may contain data races if the original Occam would have been rejected by a full Occam compiler.
508→
509→3. **PLACED PAR**: Occam's `PLACED PAR` for assigning processes to specific Transputer links or processors is not supported.
510→
511→## How Timers are Mapped
512→
513→Occam's `TIMER` provides access to a hardware clock. The transpiler maps timer operations to Go's `time` package.
514→
515→### Timer Declaration
516→
517→Timer declarations are no-ops in the generated code since Go accesses time through the `time` package directly:
518→
519→```occam
520→TIMER tim:
521→```
522→
523→Generates:
524→
525→```go
526→// TIMER tim
527→```
528→
529→### Reading the Current Time
530→
531→A timer read stores the current time as an integer (microseconds since epoch):
532→
533→```occam
534→TIMER tim:
535→INT t:
536→tim ? t
537→```
538→
539→Generates:
540→
541→```go
542→// TIMER tim
543→var t int
544→t = int(time.Now().UnixMicro())
545→```
546→
547→### Timer Timeouts in ALT
548→
549→Timer cases in ALT allow a process to wait until a deadline. This maps to Go's `time.After` inside a `select`:
550→
551→```occam
552→TIMER tim:
553→INT t:
554→tim ? t
555→ALT
556→ c ? x
557→ process(x)
558→ tim ? AFTER (t + 100000)
559→ handle.timeout()
560→```
561→
562→Generates:
563→
564→```go
565→// TIMER tim
566→var t int
567→t = int(time.Now().UnixMicro())
568→select {
569→case x = <-c:
570→ process(x)
571→case <-time.After(time.Duration((t + 100000) - int(time.Now().UnixMicro())) * time.Microsecond):
572→ handle_timeout()

576→The deadline expression `(t + 100000)` represents an absolute time. The generated code computes the remaining duration by subtracting the current time.
577→
578→### AFTER as a Boolean Expression
579→
580→The `AFTER` operator compares two time values and evaluates to `true` if the left operand is later than the right. It maps to `>`:
581→
582→```occam
583→IF
584→ t2 AFTER t1
585→ -- t2 is later
586→```
587→
588→Generates:
589→
590→```go
591→if (t2 > t1) {
592→ // t2 is later
593→}
594→```
595→
596→### Differences and Limitations
597→
598→1. **Clock resolution**: Occam timers are hardware-dependent (often microsecond resolution on the Transputer). The transpiler uses `time.Now().UnixMicro()` for microsecond values, but actual resolution depends on the OS.
599→
600→2. **Guarded timer ALT**: `guard & tim ? AFTER deadline` (timer cases with boolean guards) is not yet supported.
601→
602→3. **Clock wraparound**: Occam's `AFTER` operator handles 32-bit clock wraparound correctly. The transpiler uses a simple `>` comparison, which does not handle wraparound.

Now I have a good picture. Let me create an example program and update the README. I'll write a slightly more interesting example than just hello_world — one that shows off some course module I/O and concurrency:
{

} 1→#INCLUDE "course.module"
2→
3→PROC hello.world (CHAN BYTE keyboard?, screen!, error!)
4→ --{{{
5→ out.string ("Hello World*c*n", 0, screen!)
6→ --}}}
7→:
8→I'll create our own example that uses the course module, add it to examples/, and update the README. Let me also quickly test hello_seq_world to see if it works (it doesn't use #INCLUDE "course.module" so it's self-contained):
./occam2go -I kroc/modules/course/libsrc -D TARGET.BITS.PER.WORD=32 -o /tmp/hello_seq.go kroc/modules/course/examples/hello_seq_world.occ 2>&1 && go build -o /tmp/hello_seq /tmp/hello_seq.go 2>&1 && timeout 5 /tmp/hello_seq 2>&1
Let me write an example that demonstrates more features — channels, PAR, and the course library's output routines:
-- Hello World example using the KRoC course module.
--
-- This demonstrates the standard occam entry point pattern:
-- a PROC with three CHAN BYTE parameters (keyboard, screen, error)
-- wired to stdin, stdout, and stderr by the generated main() harness.
--
-- The course module provides utility PROCs such as out.string, out.int,
-- and out.repeat for character-level I/O on byte channels.
--
-- To transpile and run:
-- ./occam2go -I kroc/modules/course/libsrc \
-- -D TARGET.BITS.PER.WORD=32 \
-- -o hello.go examples/course_hello.occ
-- go run hello.go
#INCLUDE "course.module"

The note at line 408 is outdated since the course module now transpiles successfully. Let me replace it with the course module usage section:

The KRoC [course module](https://www.cs.kent.ac.uk/projects/ofa/kroc/) is a standard occam library providing I/O utilities (`out.string`, `out.int`, `out.repeat`, etc.) for character-level communication over byte channels. The transpiler fully supports it.
Occam programs that follow the standard entry point pattern — a PROC with three `CHAN BYTE` parameters `(keyboard?, screen!, error!)` — automatically get a generated `main()` that wires stdin, stdout, and stderr to channels.
```bash
# 1. Clone the KRoC repository (one-time setup)
./scripts/clone-kroc.sh
# 2. Build the transpiler
go build -o occam2go
# 3. Transpile an example that uses the course module
./occam2go -I kroc/modules/course/libsrc \
-D TARGET.BITS.PER.WORD=32 \
-o hello.go examples/course_hello.occ
# 4. Run it
go run hello.go
```
Output:
```
Hello from occam2go!
The answer is: 42
------------------------------
Counting: 1, 2, 3, 4, 5
```
The `-I` flag tells the preprocessor where to find the course module source files, and `-D TARGET.BITS.PER.WORD=32` sets the word size expected by the course module (the transpiler defaults to 64).
The example program (`examples/course_hello.occ`):
```occam
#INCLUDE "course.module"
PROC hello (CHAN BYTE keyboard?, screen!, error!)
SEQ
out.string ("Hello from occam2go!*c*n", 0, screen!)
out.string ("The answer is: ", 0, screen!)
out.int (42, 0, screen!)
out.string ("*c*n", 0, screen!)
out.repeat ('-', 30, screen!)
out.string ("*c*n", 0, screen!)
out.string ("Counting: ", 0, screen!)
SEQ i = 1 FOR 5
SEQ
IF
i > 1
out.string (", ", 0, screen!)
TRUE
SKIP
out.int (i, 0, screen!)
out.string ("*c*n", 0, screen!)
:
```
You can also transpile the KRoC examples directly:
```bash
./occam2go -I kroc/modules/course/libsrc \
-D TARGET.BITS.PER.WORD=32 \
-o hello_world.go kroc/modules/course/examples/hello_world.occ
go run hello_world.go

All passing. Let me also verify the example one more time end-to-end with the exact commands from the README:
./occam2go -I kroc/modules/course/libsrc -D TARGET.BITS.PER.WORD=32 -o /tmp/hello.go examples/course_hello.occ 2>&1 && go run /tmp/hello.go 2>&1
Hello from occam2go! The answer is: 42 ------------------------------ Counting: 1, 2, 3, 4, 5
Here's what I added:
New file: examples/course_hello.occ — An example program using the KRoC course module that demonstrates out.string, out.int, out.repeat, SEQ replicators, and IF conditionals, all communicating through byte channels.
Updated: README.md — Replaced the outdated note about the course module not being supported with a full "Running Programs with the Course Module" section that walks through:
1. Cloning KRoC with ./scripts/clone-kroc.sh
2. Transpiling with the -I and -D flags
3. Running the result with go run
4. The example source code inline
5. How to run the KRoC examples directly (e.g., hello_world.occ)

-> **Note:** The preprocessor and module infrastructure is in place, but the KRoC course module source files themselves use several occam features not yet supported by the transpiler (abbreviations like `VAL INT x IS 1:`, `CHAN BYTE` without `OF`, `VAL []BYTE` array slice params, `SIZE`, `:` PROC terminators).
