Hello everyone,
I love this programming language. It's my first 'language' I learned, it's the best.
Anyways, I was thinking about a weird suggestion:
Can somebody make an application that translates Kix-language to normal English.
So we can verify what scripts are doing.
What d'you all think?

I think the application you have in mind is embedded in your brain...or at least it is supposed to be. [Wink]

KiXtart is a scripting language, not a programming language. Slight difference!

Re: Translation. I think that's what the KiXtart Manual is for.

Although it's been covered before, I'd like to here everybody's distinction between a scripting language and a programming language. In simpler terms, what's the difference between scripting and programming?

Is it simply a distinction between compiled/interpreted code? Level of complexity? Or are there certain features that need to be present before it can be considered a "programming language", e.g. OO design principles.

Read for example this: Scripting: Higher Level Programming for the 21st Century or Definition of a scripting language .

You're right, I wasn't thinking. Ofcourse Kixtart isn't a programming language because you can't make "programs". Only scripts that use other applications to control computer(s).
Never mind about this idea, it's stupid. I was/am just searching for an application that checks if my scripts are correct syntaxed (if that's the word).

Then why don't you say that? See for example KiXstrip at http://home.wanadoo.nl/scripting/

Also documentation is available.
