At that, the entry keyword is being discussed currently because people are questioning it as they saw in the peer reviewing that is continuously going on during svn commits. Euphoria 4.0 has not yet hit an alpha stage and even during the alpha stage the keywords, constructs and API are free to change. The current discussion about nested routines, OO, etc... are just that, they are very, very pre-even thinking about adding, discussions to see what people think of those constructs. > This beautiful, simple language is starting to suffer from some serious > uglification IMV. > Can you be a little more precise on what additions to Euphoria in 4.0 you think are ugly so we can re-evaluate them? If they are currently being discussed, please let those out as discussions are already going on. If they have not yet been added, please leave those out as they are also being discussed already. I am speaking of what has been added or has been approved to be added? The list can be seen: http://sourceforge.net/mailarchive/message.php?msg_name=4831C95F.709%40cowgar.com To keep things in order and the discussions able to be followed, for each issue that you wish to discuss, can you start a new thread for?
