I did something like that 20+ years ago, a subset of Flavors with some graphics classes, running inside of Emacs. My school deleted my account with all the code in it at the end of a semester. Gack.
- agumonkey 3y agoOh what a shame. Did you write other languages / dialects since ?
- throwaway81523 3y agoNot sure what you mean about other languages. At the time (as a snotty undergrad) I thought what I was doing was exciting and important, but I can't say for sure that it would have turned into anything interesting. The OO stuff worked ok but the amount of user functionality that I got working wasn't that great.
- agumonkey 3y agojust curious if you did try to invent new dialects / paradigms since
- throwaway81523 3y agoI don't think I invented much with that code. I implemented a subset of Flavors based on the Flavors manual, as an add-on to Emacs Lisp. I guess it was cool in some ways, but it is long gone now. I've hacked on other compilers and interpreters but mostly about implementation, rather than inventing languages. IMHO we have plenty of languages and we don't need more ;).
