Just use PHP...
Why do we need yet another C-like language? I use PHP now for virtually everything (using the CGI version so you can write standalone scripts) It's great for little one-off scripts or whatever. Another C-interpreter type project is EIC, which is actually extremely close to standard C. It works well for most programs you don't want to constantly recompile.

Re:What I'd like to see.Well, I don't know if it's good compared to others, but EiC at http://www.kd-dev.com/~eic looks really interesting.
There you can find some links to other interpreters too.

Scrubbed C, EiC, etc...
I had the same idea quite some time ago.
I've worked a little with EiC which is an Open Source (Artistic license) package that allows you to run C programs as scripts on many platforms (but it does not have a portable binary VM format).
I have also written a VM of my own, and a parser for C99, but they are not releasable quality yet. If I ever do release it, it'll be either BSD or artistic.
I'm not really plowing a great deal of effort into this, because in order to gain wide acceptance, it would have to be free, and well... there's that pesky money issue.
When I saw this, my jaw dropped... but there is no Windows or Mac version. If they come out with a Windows version, this may be the one I've been waiting for. It would be so nice to see Java just curl up and die. It was a bad idea right from the start. I don't care if this guy releases his stuff as Open Source or not. Simply by putting a C/C++ VM on my box, and having my C/C++ skills be important for both stand-alone *and* internet applications, he would be doing a great service.

Re:Why change for change's sake?A free C interpreter does exist: look up EiC.
Still, Pike rocks. "OOP for the rest of us", you might say
;-)PS. Anyone know what happened to ddns.org?

Best available resource so far
...is Derek Simkowiak's page documenting his dialogue with them. URL: http://www.kd-dev.com/~dereks/linuxone/ . If anyone has been compiling similar information, post it up here too.

Ok lemme get this straight...
According to the warning letter, LinuxOne's lawyer uses a hotmail account. Sounds like a pretty prestigious law firm.
The letter doesn't even look like a letter written by a lawyer. For example when does a lawyer call him/herself a lawyer and not an attorney? I, unfortunately, have received a "cease and decist" letter from a lawyer at one point, and this looks nothing like what I received. The one I received gave specific directions on what they wanted me to do, and legal specifics of what they were accusing me of doing. Maybe you poor folks who have been involved with the DeCSS stuff can comment on your legal letters? This one talks about "lies you have been spreading over the internet". Last I heard, lying on the 'net was legal.
Btw, I'm a hot blonde, 6'2", 36-24-36... *grin*
