Hmm, well what I'd personally find interesting from a computer science point of view is a app that will take a language specification in BNF (complete with keywords and all) and output C code which is then compiled to an executable as normal. This is how a front-end should be designed. A middle-layer for translating common language elements like lists, sets, etc, could make it easy. -- MarkJ Tacoma, Washington -- https://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
