Hi, maybe a bit off-topic but Max, you should pick other words. Even your
words are quite creative, there is no hint for someone with IT background
what it's all about. Further I think it makes talking about this stuff
unnecessary complicated.
To me this all looks like a graph. So we have nodes, links or edges,
sources and destenations, handle-functions and that's it.

How about such a syntax:
gui: layout [
across
styles lvid-style
sldr: slider 200x20 min 1 max 100
output: field
]
edge: link value-sldr/value output/text [
print value + 20
]
IMO much easier to read. Robert
