Mark abandoned Monkey-X and moved on to Monkey2.
*Fixed Link*
Monkey 2

Monkey2 is pretty neat and a much more complex language that generates C++ that feeds into compiler chain vs BlitzMax which generates PPC assembly. So should be significantly easier to port.

That being said I am not all that interested in as I took this up because of the challange of the PPC assembly aspect of the compiler and getting it working on Amiga ABI. Not to say I wont think about it but lot more to accomplish on BlitzMax yet mainly the GUI support.

I have another richer language(Blitz like) I authored that I would like to port but I have but yet to get LLVM to compile correctly on AmigaOS.

Thanks for interest,

Regards
Doug
