One of my long goals would be to write a llvm backend, which would give us a lot of nice features, like more control over memory layouts, support for a lot of architectures, an interpreter, hooks for the gdb debugger, and etc. Of course I have no experience in writing one, so I've been off reading books about compiler construction :) > Second would be the syntax [I'm a Haskell fan there]. What would you change? There's a couple things I wish we had, like sugar for lists and dictionaries, and keyword/label arguments, character literals, but we've never figured out a good syntax for them that didn't break other things. -e ------------------------------------------------------------------------- Take Surveys.
