I am a second year student, currently home for my holidays.  Recently, I decided
to have a go at designing a programming language partly for the fun of it and
partly for the learning experience.  The language is called "Rocks" and the
slogan is "Something to REALLY throw at your computer".  If you think about it,
rocks share many attributes with good languages (strong structures etc).  Ideas
have been pinched from Ada, Eiffel and C; but the language does not copy the
syntax of any of these.

So far I have produced a six-page document with informal notes on the following:
Definitions and Declarations, Attribute Definitions, Pointers, Typing Strength
Assertions, Subprograms, Constructs, Encapsulation and Visibility
Special OO Issues, Multitasking.

At this point in the process, I would very much appreciate interactive voluntary
guidance over the next fortnight from someone who is prepared to recieve my
document in RTF format via email.
