Squishy2K is an esoteric programming language created by Chris Pressey in 2000.

Description

Squishy2K was described by its creator as "a string-rewriting language (read: Thue) embedded within a state machine (read: beta-Juliet) with states-doubling-as-functions thrown in for good measure".

This is the grammar.

Program ::= {State}.
State   ::= "*" Name "{" {Rule} ["!" Name] "}".
Rule    ::= LString "?" RString "!" [Name].
LString ::= {quoted | "few" | "many" | "start" | "finish"}.
RString ::= {quoted | digit | Name "(" RString ")"}.
