    A wild guess… Magik/Smallworld? That was it for me.

      Nah, it’s called CM which I believe stands for Configura Magic. It’s a C-based language sort of similar to C#, but specifically made for use with Configura’s space-planning software.

      I actually like the language, I just hate that it’s extremely niche.

      Edit: the similarity between the names Magik and Configura Magic is not lost on me, but I don’t think they’re related.

        Hmm seems coincidence yes. Though Magik is also very niche… I think it was more Pascal inspired and later ported to jvm. I guess the name and Emacs were just a sign of the times.
