    I’m not sure the status of this but it has the most unusual syntax I’ve seen in a good long while. I don’t know that I like it, but I appreciate that it’s at least trying something different and I definitely see the underlying idea that the author was going for.

      I definitely see the underlying idea that the author was going for.

      I don’t! Care to enlighten me?

        So I think there’s two things going on: an expansion-like evaluator (it makes me think of Tcl for some reason) and an attempt to do some sort of meta-macro thing to encode basic ideas and spit out code in multiple languages (almost like those attempts to use things like m4 as a high-level-assembly type thing).

        I thought the syntax alone was unusual enough to warrant submitting it. :)

      If it doesn’t run on the Parrot VM I’ll be very sad. :(
