My vote is for continue, not that it matters hugely. My reasons are that of the
10 languages listed about 9 of them use continue and I think consistency is
important. Especially given the earlier argument that next in VBA means "end for"
and hence leans towards more confusion.

I speak as a developer who currently is primarily using Euphoria and perl, and
perl was the only one of the 10 that uses next. However there are so many
significant syntax differences between perl and Euphoria that consistency of the
use of next pales in comparison. Perl requires a semi-colon at the end of every
line. Perl uses braces for code blocks. etc.

Anyway - hoorah for this new addition to Euphoria, whatever it ends up being
called. Thank you.

Cheers,
Mark
