The new line expected error was exactly what I got, actually. Smile

Although, how is that more than one statement on more than one line?

Or does the parser only look at one line right now? Perhaps some example VF code would give me an idea of where to start with the testing.

Ok, I created http://www.b6sw.com/docs/ViviFire/test. I'll be uploading a variety of basic test files over the coming days and weeks.

I second the sample code snippets, since one is really lost if there is nothing to look at Wink

I just uploaded a new version. This release adds a command line switch to select the verbosity of the output.

I just uploaded a Zip archive containing all of the test files, if you want them in a single download.

Seeing as this weekend is a holiday here in the States, the next release is being pushed to the 28th or 29th.

I noticed that no one has been bothered to download the test suite. Is there something syntactically you want to see specifically?

I haven't downloaded the text suite ZIP archive, because I did download the individual files already Wink

Have been busy with other issues, but hope to find some time during this extended weekend.

A new release is available for download.

I didn't have time to add much new stuff. Mostly, I added all of the suggested block comments so you can try them out. Please vote for your favorite in the poll which ends in about 20 days.

There's not much news to report. I just started work on the abstract syntax tree (AST) and hope to have it well integrated by next week.

I do not remember the error I got when I tried the hello world program, but I realised after it ran, that I had the old version of the command with the "Hello World "NL" ", and so I changed it to "Hello World $NL". Then it ran and got no errors.

Over all I like what you have so far. I know that the parser is just one step in many, of getting this language ready to code in. Right now, you're just putting the parser through it's paces. I wrote a Rtf word processor once in visual C# using visual studio community. It took a lot of hours pouring over questions and answers from stack overflow in order understand what little I do know about c#. I am just now to the point where I am starting to understand a little about classes. I do like your class properrty example it is easy to understand, unlike how everything in the newer languages has to be a new instance of something. In basic, if I wanted another filestream, I just used the open command and gave it a differenr buffer#. Still I like where ViviFire is headed, and look foreward to the day when I can start to really program an app in it.
