Pollyanna

I got one way to execute the code but hardly find another one...
Is the code runnable in 2 ways without modifying it?
Or did I understand anything wrong with the challenge?

It's much less complicated than you think. No need to run anything at all.

I don't get it... are the semicolons significant? What about the blank lines at the end?

I got the first 'decrypt' - I just can't think how it might be done in any other language. Your hint about running it doesn't clear it up :(

Let me say this with Sherlock Holmes words: If you eliminated the impossible, whatever remains, however improbable, must be the truth :shock:

Regarding languages: There are very strange ones...

The thing you are missing is very obvious if you know what your looking for. Just a simple clue:- Why does the file have scrollbars scrolling way beyond the end of the text?

I know the answer, but god damn if I can find out how to compile the thing.
