We had an idea (~1992-94) of having a blend of Turbo Pascal and Forth. It'd
be nice to have possibility to change compiler behavior at compile-time -- 
to generate build information, to compile additional resources, to check
dependencies, etc. It all was related to creating a game engine in BP. We
made it (BP) generate EXE files 112 bytes large (it required a fix in
BPC.EXE).

An offtopic, though. :)
