Hey guys,

As a product of inspiration that I have received from the AlliedMod's team effort, I have decided to develop a cross-platform scripting engine that I have named Antonette. I am still debating with myself, but my goal is a JIT run-time parse method. For example, take the following script:

#include <antonette>

void main(string version)
{
    print("Version: %s\n",version);
}

Antonette is still very young, and if anyone is interested in learning more or even helping, please let me know either in this thread, by PM, or by email at [email protected]

EDIT: Yes, it does look like C++. If you don't like it, cry about it.

It's for which games? It has is own programming language? What you want to accomplish and give to the end user?

Hello.

What do you plan to do with your engine?

As for platforms, it will support Windows, Linux, and Mac. It is a stand-alone scripting engine, meaning its not for any game or anything, for example lets say you wanted to make a GUI application, eventually there will be a wxWidgets extension.

void main()
{
    init_wx();
    wx_title("test title");
    ...
}

Basically its like creating an executable within text files.

What is the difference to a scripting language like python?

Indeed.

What's the need for this?

What superior features would it have over existing languages?
