CCPL for Visual Studio Code

Syntax highlighting and editor support for CCPL — the Cool Compilable Programming Language, a Lua-like language that compiles straight to native executables through TinyCC.

This repository contains only the VS Code extension. The language implementation lives in a separate repository.

Features

• Syntax highlighting for .ccpl files
  • keywords and control flow (if/elseif/else, while, repeat/until, for, return, break, continue)
  • declarations (var / variable, func, get)
  • builtins (say, hey, oh, tonumber, tostring, malloc/calloc/realloc/free)
  • native types (i8…i64, u8…u64, f32, f64, bool, char, ptr)
  • numbers (decimal, float, exponent, hex), strings with escapes, operators
• Line comments (--) and block comments (--[[ ... ]])
• Smart bracket and quote pairing
• A custom icon and dark gallery banner

A taste of CCPL

-- hello world in CCPL
say("hello, world")

func add(a: i32, b: i32): i32
    return a + b
