+        Parrot VM - a VM for dynamic languages
+
+Parrot is a virtual machine designed to efficiently compile and  
+execute bytecode for dynamic languages. Parrot currently hosts
+a variety of dynamic languages such as Tcl, Javascript, Ruby, 
+Lua, Scheme, PHP, Python, Perl 6, APL, and a .NET bytecode translator.
+ 
+<http://parrot.org> 
+
+If you want to compile parrot with icu4c run the SlackBuild as below. 
+You'll need of course to install icu4c. A build script for this is available
+at SlackBuilds.org.
+
+ICU=yes ./parrot.SlackBuild
