Busy weekend. Took some time to update and flesh out the documentation, finishing out statements. As always, feedback from various levels of programmers is helpful.

I infrequently visit #gamedev, and this is plenty good. Thanks a bunch. I'll look into that save problem.

Righty-o. Anywho, having just downloaded your language thingy today, I had a few blocks with TangentDabble. Mainly the fact that textboxes don't auto-indent on new lines, and the /actual/ output of the code wasn't newlined(yay \n vs \r\n), and it was mixed in with the rest of the compiler output.
So, I spent a few hours today hacking together a little "ide" to use. Couple areas are quite ugly, too. Seems to work properly, though, from what I've tested.
Features include:
Now I won't go insane indenting and finding output while playing with your language. Didn't know if you wanted to use it(I'd be honored if you did!), if so, I uploaded a zip of it to here. It doesn't have the .dlls that came with the download, but it does need one or two of 'em. Can't claim to properly understand everything under Verify and BuildAndRun since I cookbooked it off of what Reflector showed me of yours. :p

Yeah, the two methods are not terribly complex. TangentDabble got thrown together in like 5 minutes (TanCC in even less!), and I'm not a big winform guy in the first place. I should route a lot of the compiler output to another stream, but it's just not there yet.
If you want to knock something together (monospaced fonts for the editor is my only immediate gripe), I'll be glad to include it in the package. Let me know if there's anything I can do to help that out.

Reuploaded to the same spot. Threw in a combobox and a textbox in the menu to allow for the selection of fonts and fontsizes respectively.
Lemme know if there's anything else!

It'd be great if it remembered your font of choice. That and a title is all that immediately jumps out at me.

I really like the 'infix' notation, even though I can create postfix and prefix stuff with it. However, it doesn't seem to work in classes, only in static methods. Bug or limitation?

Eh?
public class foo{
public (int x) bar (int y) => int{
return(x+y);
}
public baz(int x)=>int{
return(x bar x);
}
}
public static main()=>void{
local foo aFoo = new foo;
print 2 aFoo.bar 4; // 6
print aFoo.baz(2); // 4
}
Works for me, or am I misunderstanding you?

Perhaps I should have said abusing infix notation works in static func, but not classes.
public class foo
{
public (int x)bar(int y)=>int
{
return(x+y);
}
public baz(int x)=>int
{
return(x bar x);
}
// This doesn't compile
//public (int w)infix(int x)notation(int y)abuse(int z)=>int
//{
// return(w+x+y+z);
//}
}
// This compiles *and* runs. Proper.
public static Bad(int w)infix(int x)notation(int y)abuse(int z)dog=>int
{
return(w+x+y+z);
}
public static main()=>void
{
local foo aFoo = new foo;
print 2 aFoo.bar 4; // 6
print aFoo.baz(2); // 4
print Bad 3 infix 4 notation 5 abuse 6 dog;// 18
}

Ah.
Bug.
The problem was not with the infixing, it was with the phrase compilation. It was looking to see if the class had any existing methods with that name (because it needs to overload if there is) but was looking in the wrong place.
This now works:
Let me know if you want an updated build. [edit: Updated Build. The one dll might be misnamed.]

Though, on your TangentDabble tool, it doesn't seem to like it at all when I attempt to resave a file in a different location or with a different name. It seems to just save it in the original location with the original name. >_>
Sorry if this isn't the best place to inform you. Don't think I've seen you on #gamedev, and your assembla page wouldn't let me post jack squat as far as I could tell.
