Generalizing programming language patterns in CodeBlocks
beqroson:
Ok, I have a couple of responses about the general idea. Thus I can present the specific idea.
The specific idea is to support not only any programming language that the code may be written in, but...
to also support ANY natural language that the code may be written in. By just adding this support in the IDE!

You do realize you are coming off as a person who knows nothing about programming!

Either know nothing... or too much! No, just kidding. Sorry if I have trouble to make myself clear and understandable among all those enthusisastic traits of me. For the record, I am not new to programming. More like moderately advanced in C++, knowledge about a few other languages, computer theory, the psychology of language, some about ergonomy...
Dont get fooled by me though. I can be too enthusiastic. Better safe than sorry.

It sounds like you want to do YAGKBS (yet another generic killer build system) and then you want us to make a C::B plugin for it. Am I correct?

Hmm, you got me thinking there. Damn, a long time since I used my brain. :D
Well, now that you mention it, I realize that I am thinking about some kind of quick cheat that may not cover corner cases about programming. No, I am very content about the YAGKBS that codeblocks already have. The quick cheat I am referring to is to use something like a preprocessor that will work on top of a source (as if preprocessors worked in some other way). I mean, just look on GCC that cannot support other than ASCII set of characters. However, when referring to the the implementation of support for natural language (and parts to programming language) a preprocessor may be what really is needed.
I am thinking about some showcase implementation. I hope to be able to scramble something together rather quickly. Just to convince myself that it is workable. And for you to see more clearly what I intend. I dont think it is correct for me to give you details here. Or? Do you want me to go into details? If you are that curious/or want to finish this discussion rather quickly?
