hey all,

I am sure many of you here are familiar with other programming languages/environments. Question: What other language/environment do you find Lemur script to be the most related/similar to as per your personal experiences?

Lemur's syntax (how commands are written and things like if-statements and for/while loops) are C-style. In that sense, Lemur scripts look similar to a whole lot of languages like C, C++, PHP, and Java. Of those, I'd say that when people write programs with those languages, they'd use C most similarly to Lemur (or Processing, which is a really nice programming environment). The actual functions that Lemur makes available are kind of it's own unique thing.

cool, thanks brianc!

Hi
Yes primarily C-style but with an 'object' overlay, smalltalk, C++
with IDE programming interface for objects, variables as well, there is a great deal of scripting that can be done there as well

So basically C for syntaxy type stuff,
but keep the whole objecty thing in mind for design purposes . . .
