Kazimir, thanks for the pointer to Converge. Can you provide a pointer to Wrapl? It does not seem to show up on Google... Regarding Converge, I think we should applaud any language effort that promotes generators and goal-directed evaluation. I don't think Converge is more general than Icon and Unicon (as some have suggested) and don't think Converge's authors portray Icon or Unicon entirely accurately. They seem to be Python people who are producing a better Python; one that incorporates more of Icon, and also includes their own ideas. This is a wonderful thing; Python recently added "generators" but really botched it in comparison to Icon, and Converge does much better than Python in that regard. Converge is making a serious attempt at object pattern matching that is of strong interest in some application domains, and because they are doing so in the context of a goal-directed language, some of their ideas might translate nicely into the context of Unicon. The Converge paper also reminded me that Unicon is overdue to borrow Python's initialized-table constructor. :-) Clint ------------------------------------------------------- This SF.net email is sponsored by: SF.net Giveback Program.
