Hehe...
Microsoft?

Woops Robert!
B I G T I M E "woops"....


Eu coders, here is some text from the Icon language
brief description;
"In Icon, values, not variables, are typed. Built-in
data types include numerics, character sets, strings,
sets, lists, associative tables, records, and
procedures."

EUPHORIA anyone??

"The aggregate types - sets, lists, tables, and
records - can hold values of any type."

EUPHORIA someone???

"Tables can be indexed by values of any type.
Numerics, character sets, and strings are atomic
values;"

EUPHORIA++ anybody???


Here's some example Icon code...
"
procedure main(args)
k := integer(args[1]) | 10
words := table(0)
while line := read() do every words[getword(line)] +:=
1
words := sort(words, 4)
every 1 to k do write(pull(words), "\n", pull(words))
end"

Does this look familliar??


Robert, take my advice, speed up and port Euphoria,
and start making BIG money out of it, or, it'll be
just another bill in Bill's pocket.
If ya know what I'm saying...
