Create your own language

Aloone_Jonez:
muzzy I agree but don't be so hard on newbs - he probably hasn't used anything else accept for Visual Basic.

sjor:
ive used hypertalk, but i think it's dead now.

Laukev7:
I've long wanted to design a programming language which would be completely graphic. Not like Visual Basic, but the language itself would consist entirely of graphic symbols.

I know it's been done before, but I'm thinking more of something like assembling blocks, or a circuit board. The graphics would use SVG, so that it would be possible to both define custom graphics as functions and variables, and be able to program in text mode by typing the SVG graphics manually.

I have some sort of idea of how this would work, but unfortunately I don''t think I could ever write an implementation at this point, as I have little programming skill other than rudimentary concepts of functions and variables.  :(  I don't even know if it would be realistic or even practical.

Aloone_Jonez:
I've had a similar idea Laukev7,

It would be like a flowchart language and intead of being a compiler or interpretor the code would be converted to assembly which could be optimized manually (if needed) then assembled.

muzzy:
Who cares about implementation? Write a specification, example programs, anything. We can discuss those without need for any kind of implementation to exist
