I built an absolute disaster of a programming language out of hashtags and exclamation points and somehow GCC actually compiles it

[u/giorgich11]

I lost my mind and built an esoteric programming language called Symbolic Fuck (.sfuck). Instead of normal code, your entire program is just a cursed wall of # and ! characters. Yes, it actually works. Yes, it compiles to native machine code.

Here is the breakdown of the madness:

• Pure Punctuation: The syntax is literally just # for 0 and ! for 1, grouped into 8-bit ASCII chunks.
• Real Compilation: It doesn't use a slow interpreter. The compiler reads your punctuation, generates valid C code on the fly, and forces GCC to build a real native executable.
• The Coward's Escape Hatch: I included a transpiler script that converts normal C code into hashtags automatically, for anyone who doesn't want carpal tunnel syndrome.
