I like the concept but here are some issues: True (01) / False (00) - I assume that you will not support hexadecimal notation (00) How will you note when its a textual semicolon from a string separator. IE: "a":";","b":"1" vs. a;;b;1 How do you tell a numeric value from a string character? IE: "a":1;"b":1 vs. a;1;b;1 Nulls what is test or is null: "x":null vs. x;000 < is this a string value, a hex value, or a null?

Thanks very much for the feedback. Keys and values are separated by equals. Pairs and array items are separated by a semi-colon. I wasn't totally clear whether your examples were pairs or array contents sorry, but I've assumed they were pairs. Hexadecimals work like JSON (4 digits) key=\uXXXX Semi colons are used for structure so need to be escaped or quoted: ## quoted example a=";" ## escaped value a=\; ## escaped value using escape tilde (better in DNS) a=~; The interpreter uses type inference, so this example will always be a number: a=1 To force it as a string, you can quote it: a="1" I wasn't clear on your final question but unquoted 000 always represents null. So: ## this is null x=000 ## this is string 000 x="000" Hope that answers the questions and thanks again for the feedback. If I've misunderstood or you’re not clear on anything let me know. (edited to fix line spacing)
