  • Pointers actually looking like pointers: >. Example: >pointerVar. Pointers are safe by default but "safe mode" can be turned off to allow advanced programming.
  • Storing variable in other places than RAM: $() or $. Example: $('path/to/dir')diskVar or $diskVar. Omitting the paranthesis will result in the compiler choosing where in the disk to store the variable for you.
  • Faster ways (typewise) to iterate through arrays: arr[start_pos ... end_pos]. Example: arr[0 ... arr.length] == "something". Another example: factorial *= numbers[15 ... 2] would store the factorial of 15 in the variable factorial if the array numbers contained numbers starting at 0 and then up to atleast 15.
  • Garbage Collection, can be disabled by passing arg. --nogc to compiler. It will still work if you've manually collected most garbage, and can collect the ones you missed, but might increase the compilation time.
  • Channels & something similar to Go's goroutines.
