I agree that 'goto' is a low level command. However, now that it has been introduced it cannot be removed.
"cannot" will never lead us anywhere.
The courage to change will lead us somewhere. But it needs courage.
It's better to solve a problem while it's small. As time goes by, problem only gets more complex.
@Sian Lee: 'problem'?!? While I appreciate your posts, frankly I do not understand your worry about the 'goto' statement. I don't see it as a problem at all. What matters most, IMHO, is not having or not having a given feature, but to make sure that the programming experience is as smooth as possible (intuitive / respecting the least surprise principle). I do not see any reason for being bothered with the current features of Euphoria. Like you rightly said in an earlier post, let's make the current version more user friendly - this should be the focus.
