Notice

After creating this esolang, the author noticed that it isn't that useless after all. The esolang supports printing any character once or 9 times, allowing more powerful programs than HQ9+.

Interpreter

C

#include<stdio.h>
int main(){
    char c=getchar();
    if(c=='9'){
        c=getchar();
        printf("%c%c%c%c%c%c%c%c%c",c,c,c,c,c,c,c,c,c);
    }else if(c=='+') putchar(getchar());
    return 0;
}
