There are arguments for and against adding 'enhancements' to the language.

Adding functionality will usually come at a cost to speed. However, if you 
don't use that particular function in the program, then you will (probably) 
still be taxed by it.

Well, if we look at exw.exe, why isn't win32lib integrated? Because not 
everyone needs to use it, and it would slow people down.

Not everyone wants warnings in their program for unused variables, so the 
interpreter allows 'without warning' so that it can a:run faster b:not warn 
the programmer.

In the same way Rob, I think that you should add these 'extensions' to the 
interpreter, if you can do it in such a way that if a user wants OOP in 
their program, then they type 'with oop' at the top. Or 'without oop' if 
they don't...

Responses, anyone?
