# The TNSL Language Specification
## Forward
As of writing this forward, TNSL is not even a language yet. Right now, it's mostly just a stupid idea that I've devoted too much brain-space to, and I'm not confident will ever take off. The hard-core C folk will probably write it off, as well as the new-fangled rust/golangers with all their type safty.
Right now, TNSL isn't a language. But it *could* be. And, really, I think it's a cool challenge to try to pack high-level features into a low-level environment. I hope you find it interesting as well.
