Getting all my tools together [Compiler Development]

I have been planning to make a language for over 1 and a half years now and I pretty much have everything down on what it will do, how it will operate, work, etc.

I was wondering, after reading my dragon book how exactly I go about creating this stuff the most efficient way. I mean, I have the base concepts down pretty good, and I think I am ready to take the next step, and I was wondering a few different things:

1. What are some good tools to simplify development?
2. What are some things that are good in a language?

I think my language will be designed in 2 different ways, one as a desktop programming language, and an offshoot which extends into web programming.

If anyone could help me that would be much appreciated.

Example Syntax

Code:

---

&CWL
#lib <ExampleLib>

Public Class Init Creates New Instance Of Script.Initiation()
{

ExampleLib.GetData("This is data from somewhere") [#data]

PrintToScreen(#data)

}
&END

---

Thanks,

It has been 2 days now and still no reply. I would really appreciate it if someone helped me out with this.

This is no joke, I intend to go all the way through with this.
