I've been working on an extended version of C, a C with extra features (but no OOP) and without the rough edges, it's still a work in progress. Check it out: G-Lang (https://g-lang.io/)
Also, Travis if you read this, I'm looking for someone to take over development of this project, I just wanted to get it off the ground and now I've done that I'd like to pass on the torch if you, or anyone else is interested, you just need need to be a good and well experienced C programmer, not that I am as G-Lang / G was created mostly via me dictating to Claude, but now that I have the language I want, I will not be using clause to write my G code.
