About D++

D++ is a programming/scripting language created in Microsoft Visual Basic 6.0. It is a home grown, pet project language that was created for fun and to expand my own skills. I started it when I was pretty young in the summer of 1999. It supports major language features including variables, arrays, if statements, do/for loops, functions, and more. It compiles scripts into an executable file in with a customized D++ console

D++ originated for the purpose of learning, and is still intended for that. The code is pretty well commented, so that most mid-range programmers will be able to understand it. As the language has progressed, D++ has become more and more useful for everyday use. The reason is that it's quick to set up an application for basic scripts. The IDE loads instantly, the coding is fast and simple, and compiling is usually completed in about half a second. There are no libraries to declare, no headers or anything to figure out, though it is capable of this. A simple "Hello World" application can have only one statement [screenput "Hello World!";]

With the latest developments in Winsock and the RPN engine, D++ is working more smoothly than ever, and it is easy to write a simple internet application. The only limitations for this are that of the VB Winsock control.

D++ is not meant to replace C++, Java, or any other language. D++ is a personal project that I started in my very early days of programming and evolved as I worked on my coding skills. It's a language for fun, "because I can", and I've provided the source to help others learn as well.
