-  "The most important thing in the programming language is the name. A language
-  will not succeed without a good name. I have recently invented a very good
-  name and now I am looking for a suitable language."
-  -- D. E. Knuth
-
-**This page is about the Nimrod programming language, which combines Lisp's
-power with Python's readability and C++'s performance.**
-
-Welcome to the Nimrod programming language
-------------------------------------------
-
-**Nimrod** is a new statically typed, imperative
-programming language, that supports procedural, functional, object oriented and
-generic programming styles while remaining simple and efficient. A special
-feature that Nimrod inherited from Lisp is that Nimrod's abstract syntax tree
-(*AST*) is part of the specification - this allows a powerful macro system which
-can be used to create domain specific languages.
-
-*Nimrod* is a compiled, garbage-collected systems programming language
-which has an excellent productivity/performance ratio. Nimrod's design
-focuses on the 3E: efficiency, expressiveness, elegance (in the order of
-priority).
-
-
-Some more of Nimrod's highlights:
-
-* Native code generation (currently via compilation to C).
-* Garbage collection, but not dependant on a Virtual Machine.
-* Portable: The Nimrod Compiler runs on Windows, Linux and Mac OS X.
-  Porting to other platforms is easy.
-* System programming features: Ability to manage your own memory and access the
-  hardware directly. You will never have to use C/C++ for that again!
-* Zero-overhead iterators.
-* Modern type system with local type inference, tuples, variants, etc.
-* User-defineable operators; new operators often easier to read than
-  overloaded ones.
-* High level datatypes: strings, sets, sequences, etc.
-* Compile time evaluation without resorting to meta-programming facilities.
-* Forward compability: If later versions of the language introduce new
-  keywords old code won't break!
-* Bindings to GTK2, the Windows API, the POSIX API. New bindings are easily
-  generated in a semi-atomatic way.
-* A plugable parser system: If you don't like Nimrod's syntax, you can plug
-  in a parser and a source renderer for your own syntax!
-* A documentation generator with an internal reStructuredText parser: This
-  can also be used to write documentation that is not embedded into the
-  source code. This makes documentation writing a joy (well, almost).
-* A Pascal to Nimrod conversion utility: This is particularly useful for
-  generating bindings to any library which has a Pascal binding
-  (these are many!).

-  The Zen of Nimrod
-  -----------------
-
-  * Faster computers are for solving bigger problems, not wasting cycles.
-  * Static is better than dynamic: More efficient, more understandable,
-    better verifyable.
-  * Don't criple the language in the name of simplicity.
-  * Be backward and *forward* compatible.
