Writing your own languages? I think that is pretty neat. Especially when you have a target audience such as math students who want to avoid the complexity of programming too many details.
Have you heard of DarkBasic? I believe this basic-like language was written in C++ and simplified the complexities of working with C++ and DirectX graphic/audio functionality by allowing the user to create pretty decent apps quickly. I played with the demo and think this is a great option for basic programmers who want to program neat stuff without spending a year learning C++ and DirectX.
Here is my programming language concept...use basic like keywords, create a program...and then translate to C/C++ and compile/link with mingw32 or some other compiler. Programmer selects IDE to write in format of basic or C++ or both. Add in simplified assember stuff like you guys mention AX=0x56 and voila!
There is a standard called IEC 61131 (I think) that allows developers to build machine control software in one of five languages...or a combination of them. Now this is really a cool idea. It combines graphic approach (ladder diagrams,sequence diagrams and functional block diagrams) with structured text (looks like basic/c) and instruction list (looks like assembler).
Have you thought about having different windows that allow 2 or more language formats to be used..that compile into a single EXE?
Keep it up. :-)
