What the world needs now …
… is yet another scripting language.
Why?!
Mostly because that’s what my boss says.
So, what’s going to be cool about this new language? Honestly, I’m not sure – but this is what we’re shooting for:
- extensible syntax
- extensible graphical editor (so people won’t have to be mindful of syntax)
- extensible run-time (to support extensible syntax)
This is most definitely going to be a niche thing. It’s geared to get non-programmers programming the basic flow control and information design that they are already responsible for on a daily basis. I work for a call service after all – this is what they do.
One nice carrot on this thing is that after deployment and 6 months to a year of solid running, I can release it open source.
