I dont really know much about this topics (languages and 3D), then I will take your source code like my first book [books dosent restrict you in what you do with the knowledge that you acquire, from what book have you readed first? (curiosity)] (because I dont have much money for buy a book like the red dragon or others that are called "must have"). I will not write a front end, only will analise the ideas/algorithms and the basic structure. When I am ready to make my language it will be completely new, this mean it will not look like GCC or even C or another one, I am targeting other things more related to languages (decidability, readability, comucability, and other logic philoshopic things out there... altough dont know much), pheraphs targetting poetry in the expresion ;), nice. This is because I will not distribute the programm (aka software), I will be in the part of analize the source code, that I think/know is a diferent thing. Only a last favour (very off-topic sure), you have a good resource for learn ADTs/algorithms? Thanks for answer me about not to fear the GPL license. By the way, if you whant to follow I have posted in the place that was recommend before. Thank you all.
