It is a C/C++ scripting language. I may not think it as
a new language. For example, you can run the following standard C code in
Ch::
======================================
#!/bin/ch
#include <stdio.h>
int main()
{
printf("Hello world\n");
}
========================================

I agree. but perl, ruby, python, lua and tcsh are a different language for
C/C++ users.

I see. you mean tcsh has been ported to windows.

I tried a couple of gnuwin32 binary, it runs fine without using
the tcsh, it can run in msdos or any other shells.
