If you thought my last esolang idea was bad, wait until you see this one...

Languish is an (admittedly derivative) esoteric programming language in which there are 8 commands: E, T, A, O, I, N, S, and H. These commands can be mixed together with any non-command characters, so you can embed Languish programs into arbitrary text (if you're talented!).

The home page for Languish is right here (still under construction), and it includes a download link for the Python interpreter, as well as a comprehensive tutorial. Examples of code are to come!

And actually, this is where you all come in. If any of you can write a program in this language that shows off a feature well, or implements a common programming example (like 99 Bottles), I will include it on the website, and in the interpreter's .zip file (once I have compiled enough).

I could write them all myself (and I probably might), but I have a deadline of October 21, 2018 to have my site finished for my web development class, so any help filling it with content would be appreciated!
Very original idea.

I hope this is sarcastic Razz
Why sarcastic ? i dont understand...

Your approach is original, the possibility to make new instruction just with agregate of previous token is something i have never see.

At first i was thinking about Forth langage where you build your vocabulary and manipulate a stack but your idea is different, so imho it's original.

This idea is literally a derivative of another esolang called ETA (but a few of the letters changed meaning, and one was eliminated entirely).

Anyways, would you be able to make some sort of demonstration or example in Languish?
Ah ok, i didnt know ETA, i am a newbie on this forum. I understand why you thought i was sarcastic.

I am not a sarcastic man, i am a positive guy and when i congratulate a project or an idea it's because i really think it.

Actually i am already involved in personnal projects wich dont let me enough time to take more project in charge, it wouldnt be reasonnable.

But i am interested in what you do JWinslow23, i saw you have already done a lot of very interesting things so i pay attention to your initiative.

Cemetech is a remarkable website for original starting projects, i really like this.
