You would still need the compiler to be written in progsbase too: is it? As I am not quite sure (and you cannot gamble on it) that Java and Java tooling is still there in 100 years. Which then brings you back to Haxe ; kind of the same gamble there but that is open source which makes it longer lived generally anyway. A language for the ages would be a Forth imho; you can write the language on the back of a beermath and it takes mere hours to implement on whatever system. |

Currently no, but the progsbase language is very simple and contains only well-known constructs. So creating a compiler is very simple, it would take only a few days. This is like the point you make about forth, except forth contains less well known constucts.
> open source
The progsbase specification is also open: https://docs.progsbase.com/
