This is awesome.. perhaps we can do python as well?
no matter how slow, I would be interested in that.

Hey,

Thanks for your interest and the kind words !

I don't have any plans of creating a "name-your-language" Anywhere Machine because, being very fussy, I don't particularly like any other programming language.

(Although Gupta Team Developer is my bread and butter, and by leaps and bounds my favourite programming language, my heart has always belonged to BASIC.)

It might be possible to turn BASIC Anywhere Machine into a "name-your-language" Anywhere Machine, it would have to involve something that works like wwwBASIC, because BASIC Anywhere Machine is entirely designed to accommodate how wwwBASIC works. (Refer to the wwwBASIC Github page.)

The short of it: BAM dynamically generates an HTML page that transcludes a modified version of the wwwBASIC.js javascript (instead of referring to some copy of wwwBASIC.js hosted somewhere on the web.
