But anyway: I have no time or lust for intrigues. I invented Proseq, and that was very fun to do. And I'm going to create the translator, sooner or later. And if Rob or other interpreter/compiler producers would like to borrow Proseq or parts thereof into their languages, I would just be very happy (because I haven't got the knowledge needed to make such an interpreter myself). But I won't try to push him to do something like that. And, regarding Proseq, most of its features could probably not be introduced into Euphoria without breaking backwards-compability. So it would be up to the Eu community whether you wish to do such a language-jump or not. And it appears to me that the best way to show request for Proseqish features would simply be if many people used the Proseq translator when it gets ready. So, to be concise: I just invented the nuclear bomb; that doesn't mean that I'm responsible for what people do with it. (Or does it?) Btw, I have a lot of things to catch up with now, and probably I won't be able to start the coding before June. So nobody should get paranoid if I disappear for a while... Martin
