Rob,
In future.htm you write:
Parser: The warning about short-circuit evaluation is not issued when
a function call is an argument to another function, or an index of a
sequence. Thanks to Pete Lomax.
I was being deeply sarcastic when I reported that. Please remove my
name from that "bug report". Alternatively, please replace "Thanks to
Pete Lomax" with "Since Pete Lomax pointed out just how pointless and
annoying warnings about short circuit evaluation are, I thought I'd
make the problem worse."
Thanks,
Pete

OK, I've removed that item entirely.
I am probably already "over-warning" about
short-circuit side-effects. The warnings made more
sense when short-circuit evaluation was first
introduced 7 years ago. At that time, people were
very concerned that existing code was going to
mysteriously break. The warnings identified places
where breakage might occur.

Thank you sincerely for that Rob, on my behalf too;
Sorry, but I must point out in this context that today the Trace option is
40% unusable, so EUPHORIA does not hold a true up-to-date debugging tool,
while the printout of sequences is a real torment.

Hi Antonio,
I've seen worse tracing facility. You could try Delphi 6 tracing to get message
like that:
"Due to optimization this variable is not visible." when asking to see a simple
integer variable.

Trace doesn't work, what do you mean?
