	A character list in the beginning of the program declares a number of [[stack (data structure)\|stacks]], naturally with names like "Romeo" and "Juliet". These characters enter into dialogue with each other in which they manipulate each other's topmost values, push and pop each other, and do [[I/O]]. The characters can also ask each other questions which behave as [[Conditional (programming)\|conditional statement]]s. On the whole, the programming model is very similar to [[assembly language]] but much more verbose.

Thrasos2003: add "Thee" for talking to characters and fix capitalisation

	Individual lines of code generally take the form of a piece of dialogue spoken by one character to another; this is how the value of a variable (the character spoken to) is assigned, changed, or output. A character can only be addressed as "~~you~~" or "~~thou~~". Thus, there must typically be exactly two characters "on stage" whenever lines are spoken: one to speak, and the other to be spoken to.<ref name="sourceforge" /> To call a variable to the stage the <code>Enter</code> command is used with a list of one or more characters. The <code>Exit</code> command tells exactly one listed character to leave the stage. <code>Exeunt</code> calls more than one character to leave, or in the case that no characters are listed all the characters will leave the stage.<ref name="sourceforge" /> The following format is used:		Individual lines of code generally take the form of a piece of dialogue spoken by one character to another; this is how the value of a variable (the character spoken to) is assigned, changed, or output.

	=== Lines ===		=== Lines ===
	Lines are represented as dialogue spoken by a character, and consist of at least one sentence. Each sentence may assign a new value to a variable, direct a variable to output its value, or direct it to receive an input. Lines can also manipulate stacks or act as if/then or goto statements. A line starts with a character's name and a colon. Since this character is the speaker, the other character on stage is the variable that is addressed as "~~you~~" or "~~thou~~".

	==== Constants and assignment of values ====		==== Constants and assignment of values ====
	Constants are represented by combinations of nouns and adjectives; the language recognizes a finite list of each, and both lists are separated into those having positive, negative, or neutral tone, as perceived by Åslund and Hasselström. Positive and neutral nouns have a value of 1 and negative nouns have a value of -1. Any adjective multiplies a noun by 2, and adjectives can be compounded.<ref name="sourceforge" /> Possessive pronouns are ignored by the parser, while words pertaining to basic arithmetic are recognized as operations, such as "sum", "quotient", and "cube". A sentence that assigns a value to a character starts with "You" or "~~Thou~~", may optionally continue with "are as [any adjective] as", and then gives the mathematical formula in nouns, adjectives, variables, and operations for the new value. Examples of such lines follow:<ref name="sourceforge" />		Constants are represented by combinations of nouns and adjectives; the language recognizes a finite list of each, and both lists are separated into those having positive, negative, or neutral tone, as perceived by Åslund and Hasselström.

Roman FW: /* Example code */ add brief explanation for the hello world program

	The standard [["Hello, World!" program]]:		The standard [["Hello, World!" program]]:

			The idea is to generate the [[ASCII printable character\|ASCII values]] for each character of the string and print it using the "Speak your mind" command. For instance, the first line of dialog said by Hamlet uses a combination of arithmetic operations to assign the decimal value 72 (binary 1001000) to the other protagonist Romeo, which in ASCII corresponds to the letter 'H'.
