To Be brutally honest - +1 for me too. This is very much a solution in
search of a problem. If I were looking for any C/C++/C# style features
to be added to the language, I would look at the following in no
particular order of importance:
1) ++/-- operators
2) for loop
3) single character block statement (e.g., C braces, but maybe another
character..)
I also like the idea of declaring variables part way through methods and
also the way Java/C# declare methods inline in the class.
None of these I want badly enough to push for them.. indeed some may
already be implemented.
If we're talking about fundamental changes to the language, how about
introducing start...finally...end as an alternative to
try...finally...end so the type of block can be distinguished at the top
rather than half way down?
