What is Sputnik
Sputnik is a somewhat new programming language I (UberFoX) made to bridge the gap between having to use 3 languages (AutoIt, PHP, Perl) it was intended to be just used by me to do some scripting but i see no reason not to share if others want to try it too.
Sputnik is made in C# and requires Microsoft .NET Runtime 3.5 to work [[1]]
The idea was to get all macro functionality of AutoIt with ease and what not of Perl with the easier syntax of PHP and its' nice built-in functions.
Obviously, making a programming language or even a small scripting language is a great effort and forever ongoing!
The result so far, is Sputnik: a language with a pseudo Perl/PHP syntax with macro/keyboard/mouse/hotkey functionality of AutoIt, regexes similar to Perl, classes similar to C++, yet simplified and still pretty powerful (supporting multiple inheritance and every operator overload and casting overload), multi-threading, and ability to make GUI programs.
There is still mountains to go, and we are only barely starting with Sputnik.
Currently, Sputnik is a bit messy, disorganized, and far from being a 1.0 final version. Sputnik has been developed to around 8% of the final product, and at the moment, there is a long way to go! But, it is useable and if you find any bugs, let us know.
Also, if you like Sputnik and want to know more, let us know.
