This language is coded in Go. Just recently I was wondering if there were any Go-coded languages out there which were inspired by Haskell, Clojure, and OCaml. I have read that the Go compiler includes design choices from Plan 9 which make it both fast and simple to manage. I wonder if inheriting this supposed advantage will help Tisp in the long run.

There was Oden[0], which is supposed to be a functional programming language inspired by/and written in Go. That, until a few months ago when the author stepped down. [0] https://github.com/oden-lang/oden https://github.com/oden-lang/oden

  I checked out the homepage & read the "Taking a Step Back from Oden" post. This project certainly had some high ambitions. Thanks for sharing.

I'm working on a shell scripting language that, like Tisp, is rooted in functional and concurrency paradigms while still offering some degree of backwards compatibility with traditional shells like Bash. It's very immature at the moment but the repo is below if anyone else is curious: https://github.com/lmorg/murex https://github.com/lmorg/murex I'm not suggesting my level of coding is comparable with the others mentioned though. Murex was created to scratch an itch rather than delusions of thinking I could write a powerful next gen programming language. I intend murex to be more of a REPL shell than something one would use to write scalable applications.

  Your approach to murex "to scratch an itch" reminds me of Larry Wall's motivation to create Perl. :) Did you draw any inspiration from Perl? What about PowerShell? That's Microsoft's now cross-platform shell language - it also enables one to accomplish a lot with simple one liners. Thanks for sharing! I'm using NixOS right now & perhaps it would benefit from a murex package. Btw your github looks awesome! DHCP as a FUSE filesystem?? Woah.
