Hi everyone, glad to see it's getting comments!

redink:

1. Yes, I am working on a better method for dealing with variable length parameter lists. 'argument' will probably vanish in the next release.
2. The next release will include a gcc-like compilation controller that you can use. I left .s files in there so that developers can debug their programs and flame me appropriately.
3. Yes, it is a hash table. Python calls it a dictionary.

Phoenix:
4. I considered doing something like that to start with, but left it behind because it would add unneccessary complexity to the parser. Besides, DinkC++ automatically converts integers to strings and back again as needed.

Misc:
5. Yes, floating point is on the way, along with a command-line DinkC++ parser.

Also:A
6. The compiler performs NO optimisation AT ALL. At the moment, there is no garbage collection either. I'm working on one.

Glad you all like it!
