:Mike Cowlishaw is an interesting one to talk to on language design. A

:disagreed often -- but he had the research data to back his side up. He
:put a lot of thought into REXX's baroque design -- it is and was very
:accurately intended as a language for non-programmers.
Ah, but you are a programmer (sorta by definition!), so could *you* get
along using REXX or something based on it? It is likely that you would
have to do the vast majority of the work using it, just to get a decent
code base for your server.
REXX is the standard inter-program control mechanism on the Amiga, and it
comes with the system. I read the docs on it a few years ago and decided
to never touch it. :-/
