Nothing wrong with semi-colons. Everyone has a different preference anyway.

Thanks for saying all that. It was a huge amount of work and getting appreciation makes it all worth it!

No hard constraints as of now. But I don't think I want to include meta programming or a pre-processor (don't really like it to be honest). I do want to keep it compatible with C internally, on Assembly level. One thought is, to create a file with function headers/definitions that are then dynamically linked and can just be used.

I used some C std library functions that way for debugging (printf, ...). And as I follow the standard calling conventions, the compiler should automatically generate compatible code.

With this, it would also be possible, to write OpenGL code. That would be really awesome :)

As of usage of my language - Not sure yet. Up until now, the road was more of the goal then the finished language.
