Description

I want to do a "demo language" to show people how to create a language that compiles to Gremlin bytecode.

I believe this should be done via the gremlin-archetype framework?? (cc/ spmallette.

The language would be the 2D "pipe" language discussed on gremlin-users@. List of potential names for the language:

• GremlinDimensions
• gThang
• 2g
• StraightG

This archetype would include:

1. A language parser.
2. Connectivity to the process test suite.
3. Documentation.

If spmallette or dkuppitz could set me up a branch with the "archetype" stubbed, that would be super helpful and I can then nerd out from there.
