It isn't!!!
it's very bad for just about everything, except to learn how stacks
work. But it's fun to do unreadable code in ;).
here's the languages homepage
http://www.cats-eye.com/cet/soft/lang/befunge/

I think it might (just might) be possible to create some kind of
L-system in it, but I don't think I'm going to try. It impossible to
maintain it and do nice code with INDENTATION.

Oh no, don't talk about indentation, we don't want to start a World War III

Of course -- please forgive my having lost the original post,
so I have no idea what it's supposed to do, but, hey, that
never stopped me before!

with Ada.Text_IO;
procedure POVRay_Roolz is
   type Counter is ( One, Two, Three, Four, Five );
   type Other_Counter is range -128..127;
begin
   for An_Absurdly_Long_Index_Name_That_Wont_Be_Used_Anyway in
    Counter'range loop
      for Yet_Another_Silly_Index_Name in 1..Other_Counter'size loop
         Ada.Text_IO.Put ("PLEASE!!! ");
      end loop;
      Ada.Text_IO.New_Line;
   end loop;
end POVRay_Roolz;

This only puts out 5 lines.  You should contine to type in the
other 19,995 enumerations in "Counter".

You're welcome.

Or in Forth:

	: POVRAY_ROOLZ
	  2 0 DO
	    10000 0 DO
	      8 0 DO
		." PLEASE!!! "
	      LOOP
	      CR
            LOOP
          LOOP ;

The double outer loop is because Forth (at least FIG-Forth) has
16-bit values.

Hmm, this really reminds me of Atlantis, or.. not...
Atlantis is well-structured, has good predefined alternatives, and looks like
crap...

it's a script-langauge, written in vb3 (yes...another script language) not by
me, but by RedHog, http://lysator.liu.se/~redhog

Well, dropping out again :-)

How about some kind of living dinosaur:

FORTRAN 77:

      PROGRAM POVPLEASE
      INTEGER MANYPLEASE
      DO 100 MANYPLEASE = 1,1000000
        PRINT*,'PLEASE'
 100  CONTINUE
      END
