There must be a way to do it.
Uh? Lua syntax is amongst the easier for the scripting languages I know
(I don't know that much, but even :-)
I am not even sure a Basic dialect could be said easier. (Basic has been
designed for beginners, after all.)
You sai in another message: "Trust your users. That may be hard, but
it's worth it in the long run." Well I don't trust them, it is sad but
it is a fact of life: users are dangerous, agressive creatures.
Well, so don't put a programming language in their hands, or generate
code yourself, eg. with a graphical interface allowing to connect boxes
to form an organigram (or an UML graph...).
Perhaps a bit like that: http://www.gemtree.com/editor.gif
Or make a simplistic metalanguage, and parse it to generate Lua code (or
VM bytecode if you are good enough).
