So any suggestions now are a little late. I have. I don't mean to make any suggestions about writing you have been planning to do; I am only stating what kind of information I'm looking for. > The evidence is that no one is interested in this kind of language > now. It's hard to understand how you can think that, given that I have explicitly asked for some sort of language reference. Ideally that would be a complete and comprehensive document: not too long, and not aimed at beginners, but simply giving a concise but complete description of the language. In other words a single document that I can just sit down and read, without having to read anything else, after which I would know everything about what language is defined.
