I’m not sure there would be that much demand for a cut down C.


I too am working on a language - https://www.ek9.io/ . I’m not sure that
will get any traction either!


But it is technically challenging and interesting grappling with the
compromises and technologies involved.


My main drive has been to experiment with syntax in different forms and see
how they feel and also
roll in loads (probably an excessive amount) of much higher level concepts.
