Cool, good luck.  Feel free to contact me privately if
you have questions about the implementation.  There's
also a mailing list for GvR, although it's not that
active at the moment.  It's not that the project is
dead, we just don't have much to add to it at this
point. :)

FWIW the language I was interpeting is also
Pascal-like, and as I mentioned, we initially
translated it into Python code as well.  Even when we
abandoned the idea of using Python to run the program
(er, this is like describing PyPy, we were still using
Python at the outer level, just not the inner level),
we still kept the code around to translate from GvR to
Python.

The translations from GvR to Python made it easy for
us to write unit tests like this:

'''
if front_is_blocked:
  turnleft
  if front_is_blocked:
    turnleft
    if front_is_blocked:
      turnleft
  move
''',
'''
if self.FRONT_IS_BLOCKED(0):
  self.TURNLEFT(1)
  if self.FRONT_IS_BLOCKED(2):
    self.TURNLEFT(3)
    if self.FRONT_IS_BLOCKED(4):
      self.TURNLEFT(5)
  self.MOVE(6)
'''
