Ghost

The Ghost programming language; a small, class-based scripting language.

The Ghost Programming Language

Test

Ghost is a small, object-oriented, embeddable toy scripting language. While object-oriented, Ghost also supports procedural and functional programming styles as well.

Ghost is dynamically typed, runs by a tree-walking interpreter, and has automatic memory management thanks to its implementation through the Go programming language.

class CoffeeMaker {
    function constructor(coffee) {
        this.coffee = coffee
    }

    function brew() {
        print('Enjoy your cup of %s'.format(this.coffee))
    }
}

maker = CoffeeMaker.new('espresso')

maker.brew()

Status

Currently in beta, vetting out the language and seeing how it feels writing/running. Major changes are still possible at this stage.
