But Rob > will never add it. Some of the examples of goto given is what scares people, me included. I'd not allow jumping in/out of a proc/function. I am not sure i'd allow jumping into a loop of another sort, but i would allow jumping out of one (like exit or break or continue or resume or repeat-until). Jumping into/out of procedures breaks what goto is for. > When 2.5 is released maybe someone will figure out how to implement it. > > > On another note, when 2.5 is released will RDS be folding (some) submitted > changes into the code base and change the Euphoria development model to > 'release early and release often' or are we going to end up with several > dozen one-off versions of Euphoria and a slew of programs that use features > not > included in the main distribution? We'll have the one-off routines. Then it will compound, there'll be one-off merges with other one-off versions, but with different code, and therefor different quirks. Who uses Bach?
