Sorry it took so long to get back to you all.
I will start the project in Sourceforge, as it is free, anti-Microsoft, and free:)
It's better than C# because even if there are free implementations, the standards are controlled by :fu: Microshit, and you know we can trust them with it.:rolleyes:
My plan is to make a GNU compiler from g++, but then make a 1-pass compiler and an interpreter in Theta itself. Maybe a couple translators (C to Theta, bash to Theta, Java to Theta, etc.).
The language will be fairly Perl-like in interpreter mode, but a little more low-level (actual bits, if u want), and a much more multilingual environment.
As an example, you could do a #le espanol and use si for true, and so on. #le deutch for German, etc. I expect this makes it a hell of a lot easier for international programmers. Even if it just does a grep '//esta//exists', it makes it a lot better in non-English-speaking countries. Japanese, Arabic and the ilk will be tricky, but it'll solve itself (i hope).
The license will be a bit of BSD with some copyleft: you can distribute a binary only, with no open source, but to claim it is Theta (or near-Theta) you must submit the source for review and it has to pass several tests to make sure it has no vendor extensions. This way Microsoft can use and distribute it but not :fu: it over like they tried with Java. Also no spyware.
The scripting will in all likelyhood be underused. I would actually use Perl for that, but testing a Theta program or as a beginner I would probably use Theta. I hate having to g++ foo.c every time I forgot a semicolon or period
If I dissappear off the face of the Earth again, I'm in Delaware for a robotics competition for the weekend.

There are free implementations of UNIX, but SCO owns the trademark, does that mean that all unix systems are shit?
piratePenguin:
An ex-member here (Kintaro) had ALOT of good things to say about C#. Some of it's features are innovative, and hadn't been done before. I don't know the specifics off the top of my head, but would you be incorperating these features into Theta?
