Take a look at the Rebol language.
I took a quick look. It didn't look like anything suitable for

Yah, that came outta nowhere. I've also had a "wtfits" reaction.
It's a language born in 1997, and it's sometimes used as a more
modern replacement for TCL to create small programs with GUIs:

It semantics is clean, it has everything built-in, its syntax is
readable and very short. There are many persons that don't think
of it as insane. I have used it to quickly create GUIs for
programs written in other languages too.
And it doesn't spit mysterious linker errors. It's far simpler to
understand than D.
