I once made a hacked version of javascript for work, starting with rhino. I adjusted it to make `.` and `[]` on null/undefined return undefined. Kind of like the `?.` in modern javascript, but it didn't exist back then. I was inspired by ObjectiveC's message send behavior.

The language was for some configuration in a reporting system. The scripts were written by non-engineers, and the changes made the language more user friendly for them. I started from javascript because I expected it would be easier for them to find documentation.
