Mystical: A Magical Circle Visualization of PostScript

2025-05-17

Mystical is a novel programming language that visualizes PostScript code as magical-circle-like ring structures. Programs are organized in rings, encompassing executable arrays, non-executable arrays, and dictionaries, each with a unique visual representation. Operators, variables, and keywords are represented by sigils (symbols) combined with text within the rings. Mystical currently lacks a dedicated interpreter; visualization needs manual translation into PostScript for execution.
