Hi Everett, I understand your concern about creating labels and the temptation to then use them in an unsafe manner. However, your idea about a "loop variable ... providing a tag" is essentially the same as a label, in that it identifies a specific loop construct. Either way will work, it just depends on a consensus about readability and how easy it is for RDS to implement. cheers, Derek Parnell dparnell @ vic.bigpond.net.au Melbourne, Australia -----Original Message----- From: Everett Williams <rett at GVTC.COM> To: EUPHORIA at LISTSERV.MUOHIO.EDU <EUPHORIA at LISTSERV.MUOHIO.EDU> Date: Wednesday, November 17 1999 05:20 Subject: Re: GOTO (warning: A long response follows) <snip> |I would rather have some sort of loop variable, local to |that loop and providing a tag for it along with what other function that |it may have.
