I have created a new stack language for node and the browser called FJS. See https://github.com/mark-hahn/fjs. It is a stack language like FORTH but it uses javascript variables and functions. It is totally interoperable with Javascript. It can use any JS module and can create modules to be used by JS.
I'd like to point out one big feature of interest to the Node community. All stack languages easily and naturally support continuations. FJS takes advantage of this to remove the need to code for Javascript callbacks and write code in a pure sync style instead. I just started work on it four days ago but it can already recreate the standard http server node example. See the code for this in the readme file. It started as a curiosity but it fell together so well it might have a future. Having a new language start off with the npm library available is awesome. I'm announcing this so early because I am interested in feedback on the concept. I don't expect it to be used yet. -- -- Job Board: http://jobs.nodejs.org/ Posting guidelines: https://github.com/joyent/node/wiki/Mailing-List-Posting-Guidelines You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "nodejs" group.
