I've written an interpreted language for use in Dink SmallWood (http://dink.sf.net), called DinkC++. It's an embedded, Free software package, and it's available at http://crap.desplesda.com/dinkc-0.9.2.tar.gz.

Here's one. I'd take a look but learning AI and OpenGL has kinda taken up time.

All Hail DesPlesda, the God of all things I don't understand!

(I don't know what else to say, except the whole concept looks very interesting, and Good And Cool? )

The whole thing was written for The Dink Project (Dink Smallwood is now GPL, and I'm a developer); it has (well, had) a language called DinkC that was good in concept and really poorly implemented. So I wrote a new one from scratch :biggrin:

Next project: An object-oriented language :biggrin:

So you wrote a language that is somethingC++, and it isn't OO?

C++ = C Extensions

DinkC++ = DinkC Extensions.

The ++ suffix doesn't always mean OO.

I am, however, working on an OO version. I'm calling it Tablet, and it's a combination of Lua and Ruby.

Hmm, does seem odd that its DinkC++ and yet isn't OO. Shouldn't it just be Dink++, as opposed to using the C++ suffix if it isn't ACTUALLY C++ modified for Dink? Bah, I don't know much about programming terminology, so I'll just be quiet now :smile:
