02:35:00 <arke> or, is that your new language based on brainfuck?
02:36:32 * arke was considering a 2insatruction esoteric processor. '?' would cycle between one of the brainfuck instrcutions, and '!' wouold execute the current one. To make things harder, '!' autoincrements the instruction by one
02:36:43 <arke> so +++ in brainfuck would be !???????!???????! in this language
02:36:51 <arke> [-] would become
02:37:21 <lament> im afraid someone already thought of that
02:37:28 <lament> or something very similar
02:37:37 <arke> ????!????!???!
02:37:47 <lament> anyway its on the wikipedia page
02:46:14 * arke looks in a moment

04:39:33 <calamari> arke: for more fun change the bf cell to hold binary values only. then you don't need both + and -, just a "not" operation, call it @. Now @@ is the same as doing nothing, so @ can be combined with >, call it }. So you get: < is <, > is }<}, @ is }< :)
04:39:52 <calamari> err binary.. I meant one bit only
04:41:30 <calamari> that drops you down to 6 instructions. i/o can be memory mapped, so that drops you down to 4: <}[] :)
04:41:51 <calamari> combine that with your !? thing.. hehe
04:46:06 <arke> makes malbolge look programmer-friendly ;)
05:01:10 <heatsink> it's almost a language of emoticons then.
05:01:32 <heatsink> angry ninja grin frown cinnamon bun!
05:05:45 <calamari> that's a good idea for a language.. just would need an interesting mapping of emoticons to getting something done
05:06:31 <arke> how about this
05:06:37 <arke> instead of ! and ?, use newline and space
05:06:43 <arke> VERY readable :P
05:15:37 <calamari> there is a language called whitespace .. ;)
05:16:19 <arke> This one would be even WORSE :)
05:16:19 <calamari> you don't really need two characters though
05:16:32 <arke> One character? :)
05:16:37 <calamari> you could just use the length of the file as the program
05:16:51 <heatsink> In programs like that, you have P = NP
