You speak to others as though the are immature and as though you have been enlightened by the programming gods. There are many very intelligent people here on EUforum who have vast amounts of professional programming experience who have studied language design who have programmed millions of lines of code and finally who are not dumb. The way you speak is condescending and irritating to many people. You have said such things as: "but the rewards (this is just one of many voices of experience) are more than you know." "With all due respect, this is incorrect." "Back in the day, I thought I could never live without ON X GOTO, as well as ON X GOSUB. I have matured quite a bit since then." "This isn't the only problem related to GOTO's but it is perhaps the easiest to perceive." "A programmer after my own heart (soon you will achieve oneness...)" "I am but a simple and humble servant to whatever is true." And those are just from your most recent posts. I didn't want to spend all day picking all of them out. So, I am not complaining, rebuking or upset, I am merely letting you know that your style of speaking is not helping your cause. In addition to this, please when making a statement provide information to back it up. I do not wish to go back and pick out more quotes, but statements such as "that's ugly", "it's bad practice", "..." says who? Can you give examples? Can you prove your point? An opinion is not worth much in today's world. Please provide real content. I will leave this subject now and continue on with improving Euphoria for the masses. -- Jeremy Cowgar http://jeremy.cowgar.com
