Hey all y'all,
Here's another nice bicycle shed discussion. During the recent
discussion about globals being harmful, Walter told me something that
made me think. I said, hey, there are things that are global - look at
stdout. He said, well, that's a bad thing. He then argued that it would
be better and cleaner to write:
stdout.writeln("Hello, world");
But then stdout is still global :-) However, I do think an "fwritef"
routine would be good to have--I tend to write to stderr as often as stdout.
