Is there a language, like small but the only difference is the use of string variables, if so this would be my vote.

I would have edited my last post but the button is gone. Anyway I would like to cast an anti-vote against any interpretted languages. Can we please at the very least have a compiled language.

What do you mean by compiled or interpreted?

Small is compiled into bytecode, but that's interpreted.
Perl is interpreted, but perl's parser is extremely powerful.
PHP is interpreted (no known readily available bytecode machine).
JavaScript is compiled into preliminary bytecode, but that's interpreted in a more dynamic way than Small's is.
Python is either interpreted or compiled into bytecode and then interpreted.

In fact, the only language here that is NOT interpreted is unmanaged C/C++.

All languages these days (except BASIC) are compiled into some sort of parsable bytecode tree. The difference is in whether that bytecode is compiled beforehand (static binaries) or compiled dynamically from memory.

Anyway, if you wanted something similar to Small but with strings, that's JavaScript.

BASIC has been compiled into p-code for decades now.

Let me just give the extremes:

C++ is definately a compiled language
HTML is definately a interpreted language (if you can even call it a language)

anyway the bottom line is ,compiled languages are usually faster, so I will make it simple I like small, and have never been unable to do anything I have set my mind to, with it.

What is with everyone suggesting HTML?
(HTML = HyperText Markup Language)

HTML as the language for this project! It doesn't even make sense! HTML is a layout / styles language not a programming language!

Anyway, I really like Perl. It is not very complicated, and its something different and unique. Perl is fast and low on CPU usage, which would make it great for a server mod.

And to everyone saying that they don't want to learn a new langauge: learning a new langauge is like learning how to drive an automatic transmission car after you have learnt how to drive a manual transmission car, it's very simple!

Well the votes disagree; but if Perl is ever going to be an option for this mod I can help out.

I hope you were joking, because I'm pretty sure everyone else was

No, HTML is only a type of language what makes a structur. For layout u use CSS.

But I think for me best would be C/C++ because i know PHP, it s very simular to C.
