The parser should use TikTokenization

#14Hey HN! Author here, feel free to AMA. I've made less joke-y languages too before, most prominently Ink [0] which I use to write some of my own apps for personal notes/contacts/etc. [0] https://dotink.co/
Lovely creation you made! I started to wonder if some kind of template could be made from this that just requires you to enter your individual keyword names for the basic operations, regarding that it is just interpreted by javascript.
I'm not at all into esoteric languages so I don't know if something like this exists. This approach just seems so simple to me, especially in case you want to create some more languages just for fun or want to open the doors to more beginners. The only boring thing would be that essentially each language created with the template would work the same way unless you modify that template.

10 [EASY|QUICK|WEIRD] STEPS = Range
[list expr] FOR [variable name] = map operator

Amazing answer. But actually, I’ve found this to be true in my own life. Sometimes I work on a problem for too long and a creative break allows for improved creativity to flow when I go back to the original problem.

This is actually a pretty neat idea. Should be pretty easy by just swapping out the tokenization loop logic. https://github.com/thesephist/tabloid/blob/e0d16ea54eced809e...

#19Brilliant!
However: Ideally, someone would create a meta-language for defining the next ArnoldC/LolCat/Intercal/...Tabloid, assuming there will be a next, which I'm sure there is (nobody made a porn-based language yet, rule 33 or whatever number it was).

nice stuff.
fyi, You've doubled up the line `BEATS / SMALLER THAN` under "how much is there".
