I should mention that Chomp was originally dreamt up
many years ago to serve as an intermediate language
used in computer translation of natlang/conlang text.
Once something was translated into Chomp it could be
effortlessly translated by computer into any other
language, nat or con. In fact, I originally started
working on it as a way to automatically translate text
into one of my early conlangs, Tazhi.
For anyone interested, I've started to transcribe my
notes into HTML here:
