How much simpler can you get than "goto"? Is there a shorter word in another
language (like Spanish "va") that would be simple enough? You CAN still write
exactly the same code you have been writing. I can tell you that i have not yet
used one goto when coding in Euphoria, and you don't haveto in Eu v4 either.
