Whilst I can see the commercial sense in restricting the use of Bind to registered users, I feel this is a retrograde step. 2) Can we add "$" as a valid [non-first] character for identifiers please - Now that *must* be easy as the character isn't used for any other specific purpose in the language ! 3) Can we allow "//" as well as "--" ( and perhaps even ";" ) to indicate the start of comments; this would help me ( at least ) when swapping and changing between languages ( Java = //, JavaScript = //, C = //, C++ = //, Euphoria = -- ). Other than that, keep up the good work.
