Not ANOTHER brainfuck equivalent please.--AnotherTest (talk) 11:20, 17 October 2012 (UTC)

I quite agree. There are too many.--4D enthusiast (talk) 17:25, 17 October 2012 (UTC)

Categorization

I categorized it under Brainfuck equivalents because, well, it is one, except for the input instruction. The Brainfuck equivalents category says only "with or without I/O" so maybe, going by the letter of what has been set up, it's technically a derivative and not an equivalent. I'll let someone else waste their time splitting hairs over it. Chris Pressey (talk) 10:59, 18 October 2012 (UTC)

Ah, you are in fact wrong. The loop semantics are actually different. I'm not sure how they differ, as the spec seems rather confused as to how loops work and the reference implementation does not recognise nested loops, but they definitely aren't the standard BF loop.

OK then! Changed. Chris Pressey (talk) 12:49, 18 October 2012 (UTC)

Inspiration?

Pray tell which esolangs besides brainfuck inspired this language, I'm really curious. Chris Pressey (talk) 11:05, 18 October 2012 (UTC)

Purpose

So it's a language for those turned on by code?

I'm so sorry
