Please, the next person who designs a language (which are often enough US people i guess), CHECK KEYBOARD LAYOUTS IN EUROPE FIRST.

Really. It's a pain to type []{} and \ on a german keyboard especially if it's supposed to be like every second character! Stop it. Please. Especially when there are proven languages that can cope without all this sh*t (yes, i am looking at python here).

Edit:

Although this might be an interesting language there is no way i am going through this syntax just to "check it out". Lost an opportunity to gain a new community member.
