I'm currently designing 26 new programming languages and I already know what to name them.
AA, AB, AC... 
The next 26 are going to be a hassle though 
|

|
|
|
For string processing languages, you have the 26 names A$ to Z$.
I really think you should name the other languages A0 .. A9 .. Z0 .. Z9.
(Sometimes I miss the simplicity of the first programming language I learned: BASIC, 1975 vintage.)

In my student days, we had printers with ISO 646-60 character set - that is "ASCII" with the positions available to national letters assigned to ÆØÅæøå. Unicode/UTF-8 was years into the future then - we were still fighting to make Americans understand that there could possibly exist more than 26 alphabetic characters. We were in the transition from Pascal to C as the major programming language, going from "if x > 5 then begin ... end" to (as it came out on the printer) "if (x > 5) æ ... å".
Now, the sound of the 'æ' letter is quite close to "Eeeee?". The sound of 'å' is close to "Oh!". So for a few years, until the printers and software were updated to handle more characters, when verbally referring to source code, we commonly read it out as "if (x > 5), Eeeeh??? ... Ooooh!!", with a very pronounced questioning tone for the 'æ', and the 'å' like an "Aha!" - "Now I get it!" tone. In some situations, the Eeeeh???s and Ooooh!!s fit perfectly in!
Another memory: Algol 68 was considered a crazy language in those days, proving mechanisms next to impossible to implement (but every language offers today...). One thing was that it defined abstract tokens; a compiler writer could (at least in principle) choose to look for an English "if", a Norwegian "hvis" or a German "wenn". And there was in fact a German Algol-68 compiler out there. I saw some source code example, knowing German well enough to easily follow the program flow. (There is even an example of German Algol-68 in Wikipedia!)

While I appreciate the idea of localized dialects of programming languages, I think we're better off without them. I still remember the pain of 'copying' an Excel spreadsheet to Google docs, resulting in lots of manual work to translate the localized Excel functions like 'WENN' and 'SUMME' into the corresponding english function names...

You have inspired me. About twenty years ago I wrote my own language and we just called it "the scripting language." My next one I will call "umlaut." I like it.

How do I know this beef is good, without samples?
I want beef samples! 
But there is no sample link on the page, despite a tantalising screenshot of a game sample in the IDE pic...
Even the source on GIT doesn't have sample...
Although.. the IDE i also build with beef.. mmm...
What I really would like though, is some Dirext X sample.. like the "GameApp" on their page....

are you sure there's no beef samples?
perhaps "rare" a better choice of adjective?

I hope another programming language isn't a misteak.

I've spent all day on a particular optimization only to run into wall where i just can't get it to generate the correct code.
It's super frustrating. I hate when some bugs crop up and debugging them is like trying to push an air bubble out of a waterbed. It just doesn't work. You squash it in one place, it comes back somewhere else.
The problem is I really should be converting this to a partial DFA but i haven't figured out how, so I was doing it another way, and turns out it's probably and anti-pattern (not that this is common enough code to be a pattern in the first place)

Haha, did you race him traffic light to traffic light or something?
