Quick Start

Write a file, run it. That is the whole page.

Hello

Create hello.echo:

echo
say("Hello, Echo!");
bash
elang hello.echo

Output:

text
Hello, Echo!

Plain diagnostics (no Rich panels):

bash
elang hello.echo --plain

Rules you hit immediately

  • Statements end with ;.
  • Blocks use { }. Newlines do not end statements.
  • Indentation is not syntax (unlike Python).

Wrong:

echo
say("Hello, Echo!")

Right:

echo
say("Hello, Echo!");

Echo is in active development. The docs reflect the current implementation.
