Hi Richard,

Don't think it's a problem of religion :-)

Or you want to maintain an "every day" language or you want to allow specialists languages come in.
As for me I don't mind : I use both.
But I think that all guys who invented Xtalks principles would not agree. In fact, if some distorsions could win over the purists of minimalist programming, I should not be worried ;-) But I am a writer too: So I love words... and hate when they are replaced with simple maths operations.
Some civilization question ?

Best Regards from Paris,

Eric Chatonet.

Hello Richard,

Since it would be optional as it is in other xTalks, nothing would be lost.

Except the spirit :-)
Grasp all, lose all...


With the current flexibility of xTalk, we can choose to write:

  put 1 + tMyVar into tMyVar

..or we can write:

  add 1 to tMyVar

Does it necessarily diminish the language to have these options?

I save my religion for Sundays....
