Brainf*** Interpreter

Since Brainf*** is so amazingly simple, I gave it a go. 20 seconds later this happened.

Same syntax, but I added a few other things so its a bit more fun to play around with.

Characters:

Spoiler

> increment data pointer
< decrement data pointer
+ increment current data value from current data pointer
- decrement current data value from current data pointer
, current data pointer is now 1 character input as numerical code
. show current data pointer as character
[ open loop
] close loop
* (not in regular Brainfudge) Terminates program
% (not regular) Sets current loop to a for loop. Make a normal loop, but it will loop only as many times as the current data pointer was.
^ (not regular) Sets current loop to a while loop. (Default loop type is while, btw)
~ (not regular) Program sleeps depending on the current data pointer.

Character numerical codes are:

Spoiler

Alphabet in lowercase, 1-26
Alphabet in UPPERCASE, 27-52
Numbers 1-9 then 0, 53-63
Shift codes, aka !@#$%^&amp;*() going from 64-73
And then just regular space, as 74

"Grammar":

Spoiler

Only real thing to know is: While loops only exit until current byte is equal to zero.

Pastebin: pastebin get mmjv002n brainf

If you want compatibility, use string.char to make a character and string.byte to read a character.

Oh, thanks, I was wondering how to return a character as a numerical code and get it as one. Thanks :D/>

Edit: Updated that, also added a debug and normal mode (WIP)
