Keylang v3.0.0

v3.0.0!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

PHILOSOPHY IS NOW... GAMES!!! Keylang wasn’t exactly supposed to be a general purpose programming language, and I love games so yeah Keylang is game oriented now (which means performance must be TOP NOTCH!!!!!!!!!! and stuff)

Changes

• Bundles Python :D
  • Uses PyPy instead of CPython
• Variants added. Variants of a function accessed with a tilde (~)
  • “wait” function has variant “wait~async”. The async version of wait.
    • Also has the variant “wait~until”. Waits until a condition is met.
    • Also has the variant “wait~thread”. Waits to run the code in the block without blocking
  • Default wait uses time.sleep()
• Lua embed changed to use LuaJIT
  • Scripts can be moved around now without Lua embedding breaking
• Libraries that are already imported are now in autocomplete, highlighted cyan
• Loop added to new scripts by default to keep program alive

Additions

• “do” and “end” alias for { and }, respectively
• Python can now be used instead of Keylang, via python { “the python code” }
• “when” keyword. Listens for WHEN an event occurs. Allows you to state how frequent it checks inside the parentheses
  • Also a “when~once” variant. Checks UNTIL the thing happens, then stops checking
• Keyboard input detectors. Use “if key(the_key) {}” to check if the key was pressed, if True, executes the code in the block
• “keyword” keyword. Makes a custom keyword that compiles into the EXACT code it was assigned, not preprocessing (ex. keyword yay = cube[x] += 1)
• “print_python” keyword. Prints the unpreprocessed Python for when you’re confused or when I was confused and there’s a weird Keylang bug that you need to report
• Updated website… again! Somewhat extreme style revamp

Keylang v2.0.0

v2.0.0!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

This update revamps a bit of stuff, as well as adding new features to the language and some improvements to the editor. Breaks compatibility with v1.x.x however

Changes

• “var” keyword
  Variables are defined with the var keyword. When CREATING variables, you define it with var. When ACCESSING variables, you use nothing.
• Commenting out while selecting multiple lines now only comments, no uncomments. Add shift to the shortcut to uncomment
• Editor restyled a bit

Additions

• Bracket pair autocomplete now doesn’t make you suffer if right before a character
  • Say you have dict_name1. If you insert [ before the 1, it will NOT become dict_name[]1, but rather dict_name[1
• Built in looprate variable. It gets the rate of the last time it was called. Still may be buggy but it works for now
• Bookmarks sidebar (experimental), clicking on a line number will bookmark that line, pressing the bookmark on the bookmarks bar will make the screen go to that line, bookmarks save when window closed
• Editor title changed from Keylang Editor to Editing (the filepath)

Fixes

• Undo and redo no longer… suck
• Editor menu corner no longer says version 0.0.1 alpha
• loop{ (without whitespace) now works
• Find button stops highlighting if empty

Other stuff

• Autocomplete changes to Lua built ins when inside an embed_lua block
• Updated site to match current version

Keylang v1.0.0

v1.0.0!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

This update adds features to the language, editor and makes it like probably x3 less likely to have bugs

Lua embedding

You can now embed Lua into Keylang!!!!!!!!!!

Bug fixes

• Fixed { and } not working in strings

• Made inline } supported
• Made inline comments supported
• Fixed scroll bar being blindingly white when unable to scroll

Other stuff

• Completed entire Get Started page
• Updated website
• .kl files show output in a terminal when ran, has Keylang icon
• Autocomplete contains in scope variables and functions and stuff
• Made the Keylang website link color in the menu less eye shattering I mean more pleasant
