Snigl is a programming language that combines Forth and Lisp, implemented in C. It's designed for developers interested in exploring alternative programming paradigms and language design. The project merges the stack-based nature of Forth with Lisp's symbolic processing capabilities, offering a unique approach to code execution and data manipulation. It targets programmers who want to experiment with unconventional language features within a C-based implementation.
