This month's nugget:

And, the compiler is written in Rust!

--- Quote ---Identifiers Can Have Blanks

The most important feature and the most unusual.

If you consider that an identifier follows this regular expression [_A-Za-z][_A-Za-z0-9]*,then just consider that a zinc identifier can be a sequence of one or more identifiers separated by blanks. The grammar of zinc permit this.

e.g.:

OpenWindowWithAttributes(...)
or
open_window_with_attributes(...)

becomes:

open window with attributes (...)

Featured in today's episode of "What could possibly go wrong?"

(that could be a great name for a blog)

SiliconWizard:
Yes, this is not the same Zinc though.
So, looks like we found 2 Zincs for the same price.

To be fair, the first one is a bit less funky.

Ed.Kloonk:
Is it re-inventing the wheel or perhaps just trying to build better spokes?
