Another language?
It started with me trying to write some code in C. Obviously got tired of all those manual memory management and wanted to use a simple Garbage Collector.
Once I got the GC working, next task was to make strings a little bit more user friendly. Or better say web friendly.
Came up with heredoc style multi line strings embedded within C source. And converted to correct C expression before compilation. Plus embedded variables in string. Like: $var or $(1+var/2).
To make it all work, I had to write a simple C parser and lexer.
After all these, wanted some simple library functions for maps and vectors. Then inline JSON. Why not?
By this time, it was getting more like a different language.
Note that none of the GC, lexer, parser depends on 3rd party library.
Show me the code!
