Does it support the Tok'ra[^] language?

Ah, but what about the Reetou[^] language? Bugs reporting bugs! 
Common sense is admitting there is cause and effect and that you can exert some control over what you understand.

Hi oahmad,
I'm a blogger. Please read my articles and sign up on http://sanderrossel.com.
You probably didn't click that link, started reading and signed up, did you?
Why would you? You don't know me and you don't know my blog. What's in it for you if you read my blog and sign up?
The same goes for us though.
I'm sure you have the best intentions, but I'm afraid posting this here, or anywhere, won't do much good... Let me tell you why.
Short version: We're not interested.
Long version:
There are so many languages and frameworks out there we're really not waiting for yet another language.
Certainly not another language by some unknown random guy who just signed up for CodeProject.
We all understand that this language is probably your little baby and that a lot of time and effort have gone into creating it, but... We're not here to boost your ego.
Simply put, we don't want your language because we don't need your language.
To top it off the lounge is a busy place and this post of yours will be somewhere on page 10 by tomorrow and it'll be forgotten the day after that.
So what to do?
I suggest you take a little more time and effort to tell us why we'd want to check out your language.
A good place to start would be to write an article[^] on why and how you created your language and how we can use it.
You can be pretty sure your article will be read. If you update your article with your language it'll be read even more.
If your article is really good you could even enter the article of the month competition in which case your language will probably get a lot of views and downloads!
Alternatively, you could also start a blog, sync it to CodeProject and make sure we see some new posts every few days. That will probably get you some interest.
You'll probably also have to market it on FaceBook, Twitter, Google+ and what-social-media-have-you (create profiles, get followers, post updates, blogs, articles, how-to's, etc.).
Whatever you decide, it'll be a lot of work!
Maybe you're now thinking what a bunch of uninterested a-holes we all are, but really, that's how it works. We have enough to worry about without your language.
Companies like Google, Microsoft and Apple spend millions on advertising. That's millions on why we'd want to use their tools and languages.
And you think a single lounge post would be enough?
I'm telling you this because your language looks pretty cool and it would be a shame if all your work went by unnoticed.
I hope it helps and I'm looking forward to seeing more of your language (here, on Twitter, wherever).
Good luck!

I don't think you're a-holes. Thanks for the tips.

Will it be possible to compile a Ra program written in arabic on a system set to develop in Russian? Write-anywhere, compile-everywhere is a big deal.
And just what does it mean to reuse a component written in a character set that the developer does not natively use?
With a nod to the obvious cultural imperialism of this statement, at least if a programming language has english keywords and numerals and a 7-bit ASCII character set, everyone in the world can read statements in this language after learning at most one foreign language and configuring their computer for at most one extra character set. To the extent we facilitate programming in any language, we create a tower of Babel situation where some nominally open source program becomes inaccessible because I don't speak Tagalog or know how to configure my computer for Vietnamese characters.
Now, this may be a really terrific idea if you live in, say, China or India, where you may obtain a competitive advantage if you can scavange the english-language FOSS world but they have relatively greater difficulty looking at your, um, native code. But it's gonna suck for almost everyone else.

Code written in any language should compile as long as it is in UTF8. For keywords, Ra converts to the English equivalents to compile. If you are developing in another language, the English keywords are still reserved. For class and member names, Ra converts to Latin characters in an admittedly somewhat clunky way. For example, é becomes latin_char_c3latin_char_a9. Reusing code in other languages will still obviously have its issues. Each file can be in a different language, but you cannot mix languages within a single file. Also, it's hard to use someone else's code if you don't know what it does. I am considering creating a converter for Ra so it can convert between languages. For conflicts with keywords, I am thinking of adding an underscore to the end of variable names that clash with reserved keywords for the language you are trying to convert to. Maybe it is for the best that programming languages are in English. I just wrote an article on this (Ra: My Attempt at a Programming Language for All Human Languages[^]).

...and Wyrmwood:Road Of The Dead[^] is faarrrkkkking awesome.
Australian movie, shot over 4 years on weekends only and so far has kept my interest up and has some great Aussie humour.

Saw that a few weeks ago: excellent film. I didn't know it was filmed that way - nicely done.

Interesting.
So that's two films I've watched, recently, that were shot over a period of years.
The other was utter and complete egoistic garbage, though, so naturally it won a bunch of the US "let's pat ourselves on the back for being such wonderful and creative people" awards.
Being genuinely creative, Wyrmwood didn't get a look in at those awards, obviously.

That Level Again[^]
The premise is simple: it's the same level, over and over again and you have to get from the start to the exit...but each time the rules change, or gravity is different, or (in one case) the controls float around the screen making them hard to get at when you need them. The only clue you get as to what to do is the title of the level.
It's ad supported, but you might never see an ad since they only appear when you need a hint.
It's addictive - I started it last night and finished it this morning - with a number of hints, I admit. Only real criticism is it's kinda short - 64 levels. Definitely worth a go though!

Nice game... it is exactly what you say... addictive...
Have you tried King of Thieves[^]?
It's a physics based game that is fun, nicely done and easy to play. Some times (when you grow up and get into higher levels) it can be frustrating...

I'll give it a try later on - Thanks!
