In the "DM" programming language what does the DM stand for? I am not sure if stands for Dream-Maker or not.

I'd say DML. Dream Maker Language.

"We are especially proud of DM, our programming language."

You wouldn't call the C programming language "CL", would you?

Yeah, DM stands for Dream Maker. Honestly, there doesn't really need to be a reason. They could have called it SEPLFB* or something crazy like that, but no, they went with something that made a little sense with their system.

*$5 to anyone who can guess what SEPLFB stands for.

Close, the "Programming Language For" part was right.

"DM" stands for "DM". BYOND only ever got associated with "Dream" back in 2000 when it became BYOND.

I actually wasn't joking. You guessed it correctly. Although it wasn't that complicated, I just figured there where a million other combinations that would be guessed first.
