Stop it, stop it now! If Unicon is still "unstable" enough to deserve beta,
then all Microsoft Operating systems since MSDOS 2.11 should still be
called early development. They'd still be rolling out MSDOS 3. How big was
the recent Service Pack for Vista? huge!
Seriously, Icon has been doing a large, vital project I wrote over 10 years
ago for my company, and it's still going strong. Unicon has been it's host
language for maybe 2 years, and I'm en-classing parts of it in my spare
time to turn messes like this
(\(\per_file.sections[i]).overflow).columns[j].name | &null)
into simpler logical methods etc.
