Please see syndicate-lang. And yes, the language is very much alive and maintained. You may want to look at
https://www2.ccs.neu.edu/racket/pubs/#dissertation-garnock-jones and read the chapter on examples. Tony has written a bunch of programs in Syndicate, including a DNS proxy server, a full TCP stack, a Window manager, and a bunch more. SamC is adding a type system as I type :). And not too long from now, it will also run much faster. Or so Tony says. But it is an evolving language tha also serves as a research vehicle for some. — Matthias > On May 10, 2018, at 7:33 AM, Arie van Wingerden <xapw...@gmail.com> wrote: > > Thx.
