1. Syntax

Hello,

I think +=, -=, *=, /= will make the code cleaner, once you get the jist of
them, which is easy to do they make code simpler, and they obey a programming
rule I think is quite relevant : Avoid Clutter.

I also still would like to see
        requires DOS
        requires WIN32

and to see
        type ...(sequence s)
                return length(s) = NUM
        end type

also to maybe see in a type definition
        type ...(sequence s)
                return atom(s[?])
        end type
a vector of atoms.

2. Syntax

I wrote [Re:Syntax] :
and to see
        type ...(sequence s)
                return length(s) = NUM
        end type

I meant to write :
and to see this optomised so the call to type was un-needed.
        type ...(sequence s)
                return length(s) = NUM
        end type

As for error recovery I would like a OnCrash() procedure or error functions that
you can use to call a save function. If what you call has a bug then the prog
dies instantly.

error uninitialized_atom()
        atom = 0
end error

error negative_slice()
        chrash_save()
end error

Also it might be nice to see
        include ...\c_screen\tmode.e
where ... meant %EUDIR%\include
or perhaps
        include @INCLUDE\c_screen\tmode.e

try this:

include \c_screen\tmode.e
-- It will do just that.
-- First try the local directory, then the eudir\include..
