A good start would be to write a few (short) example programs in your new language and show them here to give the rest of us an idea of what you want to do.
Also save them for later as test cases (hint: to validate a language usually requires lots and lots of test cases :).
Also try to generate an EBNF for your language and show that here as well.
Parsers are not (usually) one huge regex, but a set of smaller regexes with surrounding code that call each other recursively (sort of, maybe, perhaps...).

Posts may use any of the Perl Monks Approved HTML tags. Currently these include the following:
<code> <a> <b> <big>
<blockquote> <br /> <dd>
<dl> <dt> <em> <font>
<h1> <h2> <h3> <h4>
<h5> <h6> <hr /> <i>
<li> <nbsp> <ol> <p>
<small> <strike> <strong>
<sub> <sup> <table>
<td> <th> <tr> <tt>
<u> <ul>
-
Snippets of code should be wrapped in
<code> tags not
<pre> tags. In fact, <pre>
tags should generally be avoided. If they must
be used, extreme care should be
taken to ensure that their contents do not
have long lines (<70 chars), in order to prevent
horizontal scrolling (and possible janitor
intervention).

Want more info? How to link
or How to display code and escape characters
are good places to start.
