Hi all.

I just released Guido van Robot version 3.0.
It includes many bug fixes and it now ships with a graphical world
builder, two editors
,18 lessons and a language reference.
It has syntax highlighting in 9 languages and a debug "stepper" which
highlights the current line when the program runs.
You can install it by using "xo-get" or by going to the GvR wiki page:

About Guido van Robot:
Guido van Robot is a localized minimalistic programming language
providing just enough syntax to help students learn the concepts of
sequencing, conditional branching, looping and procedural abstraction.
Its biggest strength is that it permits this learning in an
environment that combines the thrill of problem-solving with instant
visual feedback.
In short, it is an interactive, introductory programming language that
is excellent for learning the basic concepts of programming,
applicable in any high-level language like Python or C.

Regards,
Stas Zytkiewicz
