Sather programs can be compiled into portable C code and can efficiently link with C object files. ICSI maintains a stable public class library and a growing body of contributed code including classes for mathematics, data structures, GUI interfaces and compiling; the Sather compiler, written entirely in Sather, is one such contribution. Sather has a very unrestrictive license which allows its use in proprietary projects but encourages contribution to the public library. A language-aware browser allows new users to explore the library with integrated documentation."

You forgot to mention that Sather is one *UGLY* language to look at. ;) My opinion only, worthless as usual. Other than that, Sather sounds interesting.

It's not that bad, for a pascal style syntax. It doesn't reached the ({(ugliness)}) of Objective-C does for the C syntax, or for that matter K&R C. (Ok, so I'm a syntax bigot) - Factory
