Enough with 'goto' already! I don't think Rob should implement it in anyway,
period! It is a poor way of programming in my opinion to jump from section
to section of code. I used the 'goto' statement all the time in Liberty Basic
and it only made my code more difficult to maintain, and less efficent.
It may be desirable for a few very specific things, but can be worked
around with other methods which (I would perfer).
I think if people want support for the 'goto' statement they can add
that feature them selves in their OWN personal copy of the public domain
EU interpreter source! And that is coming out really soon.

And he *will* not implement it! He said that very clearly, as anyone can
read in the mailing list archive. That's one reason, why this repeated
"goto,goto" crying here is absolutely pointless.
