NIL Programming language
A downloadable NIL for Windows
NIL is an extension to Lua written in Lua.
NIL is a programming language on its own, whose syntax is heavily inspired by both C and Lua, and translates to pure Lua, in order to run in any Lua engine (require Lua 5.1 at least, Lua 5.2 recommended).
void Hi()
print("Hello World")
end
Hi()
Contrary to "pure" Lua, NIL does require variables to be declared, and to be set to a type. This to prevent "unfixable" bugs caused by typos along the run somewhere. NIL also offers class support, switch/case support and that kind of stuff. I am currently using NIL myself in order to set up a big game project...
Sites about NIL:
The download file is a NIL prototyper (written in C#, so it uses the .NET framework. Linux and Mac users, should be able to use it with Mono) called "QuickNIL" which is just a basic NIL testing utility, featuring the basic features of NIL (and Lua).

i am just beginning with NIL but so far it looks pretty good
Ah nice.... I hope you like it. I am trying to make a better language though, which is very close to NIL, but with some improvements.
