erlang already beat me to the much more logical period (.)

function factorial of n: if n is 1: return 1. otherwise return n times n plus 1..

function hello: print "hello"— print "world".

Neither indentation-based nor relying on matched brackets. Counting periods definitely starts to be a problem pretty quick though.

$ echo 'function main: print "hello world.".' > hello-world.
$ punc hello-world.
hello world.

imo the language is named punctual but everyone calls it punc lang

embedded assembler: Full quotes

function print of msg, msglen: “mov rax, 1— mov rdi, 1— mov rsi, msg— mov rdx, msglen— syscall”.
