  You can check Rebol http://www.rebol.com/ http://www.rebol.com/ and the new Red http://www.red-lang.org/ http://www.red-lang.org/ programming languages. The latter one not yet production ready. In Rebol (and Red) you can just do the following: print 3:30am + 00:07:19 ; increment time values properly Note that ';' is the identifier for a comment.
