Kind of reminds me of something I was subjected to in another life, called LSE (a frenchified BASIC) [1][2]. Here's an example: * Quelques déclarations * Suivies d'une boucle BOOLEEN A←.VRAI.,B←.FAUX.

The only thing I still feel it had going for it is that assignment to variables were done via the ← sign and not the dreaded '=' so common to modern languages.
