‪Ya, graphic programming.‬

There's this scene in Lain where she's programming on a portable device with a stylus, just dragging and pointing and clicking to navigate and stuff.
I want such an programming environment. I want it to death.
So I'm wondering, how would a language for such a purpose look? They used LISP in the series, but while LISP syntax is very simple (good), I'm thinking you'd want a slightly less dynamic language, to allow the environment to do better definition lookup, autocompletion, etc. If you don't have a keyboard, you'll want to avoid typing as much as possible.

So, language suitable for making a kickass drag-and-drop, point-and-click code editor interface. Any existing out there? How would a new one look?

There is one already. See >>4

I wrote a little flow diagrammer for Asm programming. Quite a lot easier than following jumps in toilet-paper code, and no efficiency loss whatsoever.
