All that's known about this programming language is that it has been in development for at least six years, that its source code is publicly available, and that it is so esoteric that many programmers have already committed suicide while trying to learn it. When it was published, this text was posted at an Internet bulletin board on the user name of User:Lyricly, and included many errors.
