Seriously, do you know any single more tasteless language ? Even brainfuck is more readable. > Better yet, why don't you rewrite it in Rust. 1) because there's no need for it 2) because I'm not interested 3) because I don't use it 4) because you don't replace 20 years of work in an eyeblink. Every single code rewrite loses lots of functionalities, claims they were broken and declares their absence the new standard. And all this is true for $WHATEVER_LANGUAGE. By the way, a few years ago I wrote an April's fool claiming we'd rewrite haproxy in Lua, and got some private reponses from people who found this was an awesome idea :-) > The part where he explains to you how you should use functions is GOLD! > :D Agreed :-) Willy
