22:13:00 -!- Keymaker has joined.
22:15:34 <arke> thought of an interesting idea
22:16:13 <arke> how about a BF-like language, where theres two instructions - "scroll" and "execute". "scroll" will scroll through the different instructions (lets say BF ones, for simplicity), then "execute" performs it
22:16:36 <Keymaker> well, i guess that's been done several times :)
22:16:45 <Keymaker> at least i've had that kind of things on my mind
22:17:51 <Keymaker> for making it extra hard, the 'instruction select' would be wrapping, and execute not setting it to zero for example
22:18:07 <Keymaker> so, when user notices he/she would've needed to add some instruction
22:19:00 <Keymaker> but yes, that kind of language would be nice
22:19:15 <arke> and in a loop, you can fuckit all up because you forgot to scroll once!
22:19:19 <arke> spectacular segfaults!
22:20:34 <Keymaker> it could be clever to use space character (asc 32) as 'instruction character' and return/enter (asc 10) as 'execution character'
22:20:46 <Keymaker> this to make the source highly readable and easy to modify :)
22:54:03 <Keymaker> although, as in that, in so many other languages (or probably all) some other program can be coded to do the work, for example making that kind of source file for example from a file where only reads the number of instruction on each line
22:54:27 <Keymaker> what i'd like to see would be a programming language
22:55:02 <Keymaker> rr.. would be so complex that no program could be written for that
22:55:16 <Keymaker> so that it would be only human-readable source :)
22:55:48 <Keymaker> that only human could write the source, not easily though, and any program couldn't generate it
22:57:23 <Keymaker> on that "would be so complex that .." line i should've said ".. that no program to generate a program for that language could be written"
23:05:01 <fizzie> There is already a language that uses only whitespace as its syntax.
23:05:10 <fizzie> I've forgotten the name, though.
23:18:44 <Keymaker> have fun rest-of-time-of-the-day-on-your-time-zone :)
