I am trying to design a programming language for a simple processor (16 bit, ~10 instructions, 16 registers). I am not sure what a language actually needs in order to be more useful than pure assembly, but is also reasonable to implement. I had originally tried to make a RPN style language where the language is purely stack based, but I realized it wouldn't be Turing complete. I'd rather not just re implement C or other commonly used languages, but I'm having a hard time coming up with something I'd actually want to use. Any advice for a newbie? -- Bill [Rather than trying to invent yet another language, I'd retarget some existing 16 bit C compiler. -John]
