Sorry for being quiet for a while.
I decided I wanted to experiment with writing an interpreter for a programming language in naalaa, just for fun. It quickly got out of control and is now a mix of C, naalaa and LUA. You can easily do OOP style programming in it.
I will rewrite and develop this further in C and see if something useful pops out. But if you want to have a look at the naalaa code, I've attached it to this post. There are a couple of example programs included in a folder named "tests". Open prolan.nala/prolan.txt in NED and modify a line at the beginning of the source code to change which program to run:
Here's one of the example programs that demonstrates OOP-style programming:
I'm a bit amazed I could make this work as a naalaa program, haha
