Objeck

Objeck is an object-oriented programming language with functional features. Objeck emphasizes simplicity, portability and scalability. The programming environment consists of a compiler, virtual machine, command line debugger and plugins for various IDEs.

class Hello {
  function : Main(args : String[]) ~ Nil {
    "Hello World"->PrintLine();
    "Καλημέρα κόσμε"->PrintLine();
    "こんにちは 世界"->PrintLine();
  }
}
