Re: A minimalist concatenative, homoiconic, panmorphic language

Quite interesting (I was into esoteric programming about 2 or 3 years ago). Have three questions:

- Is there any standard library (for common input/output/math etc)? Haven't found how to do 2 + 2 in Om.

- Is there any way to include other Om files as subprograms?

- Are there any alternative implementations present/planned? (for instance, JS/Ruby/Python ports)

"...requiring the addition of many operations (such as basic number and file operations) and optimizations before it can be considered useful for any real-world purpose".

And since the latest commit was on 22 Dec 2014, the project seems to be frozen. Sad but true.
