AlexN:APL WAS an influential language back when far fewer programming languages existed and it was a pioneering idea, but its days of prominence have long since passed. (As the wikipedia article says, "Interest in APL has steadily declined since the mid 1980s.") Its dependence on unusual unfamiliar non-ASCII characters as basic elements of syntax is surely one reason it's not widely popular. But indeed its symbols are certainly more easily distinguishable and learnable than Chinese ideograms (for those who already don't know them).Sometimes the language matters:Take a look at this page:
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/APL_%28programming_...
Do you see any difference ? BTW, APL is one of the most influential programming languages.
(And both character sets present keyboard/typing and display/printing challenges on many computers.)

The idea of creating a interpreted EO-language came to my mind too and i found this post. I dont know if i'll try it or not.
BTW why the idea of a "esperanta programlingvo" was posted in an English forum?

Neodivert:Maybe im crazy, but i suppose the project is dead, isn't it?Look like it is dead.
Neodivert:BTW why the idea of a "esperanta programlingvo" was posted in an English forum?Because other languages (with known exceptions) were derived from Engish.
What I think:
1. Collections. It is possible to use -j or -ar- suffixes for classes. Example:
klaso Uzanto estas
... //
var u: Uzanto;
uu: Uzantoj;
...
uu.aldoni(u); // ?aldonu?
2. Reflection. Thanks to the regular grammar of Esperanto it is possible to create a complete self-documenting system of classes and member names.
3. Adjectives (a-vortoj). Everything ending with -a could be a part of the namespace of adjectives. Instead of writing
enum COLOR {red, green, yellow};
it is possible to use just ruĝa, verda, flava without any declaration (is it really good idea?)
