joke programming language design by polarkitten 2004-07-12 02:31:33
LISP:
( ... )

FORTH:

: ... ;

LISP + FORTH:

(: ... ;)

Other nice ideas:

- defining functions with FUN
- the name PRINT used by most languages for output does not make sense. there is no paper involved. I suggest using LOL, which does not make more sense but looks better with above ideas.

Example: The well known SMELLYSOCKS program. This defines a function that writes "Your socks smell" on the screen and executes it.

(: (: (: Your socks smell! ;) LOL ;) SMELLYSOCKS ;) FUN
SMELLYSOCKS

This way most IRC conversations are correct programs. It will massively increase productivity and innovation. An infinite amount of typing monkeys....
