Show us your patch. Any ideas how GCC could implement the implicit COME FROM multitasking? Would a VM-based solution satisfy you? (No I'm not comparing Java to INTERCAL.) Otherwise I think you might have to introduce new (fork ...) RTL expressions. No, not fork(2); more line Linux clone(2). > (1) -> Don't say that I'm crazy. You're nuts. For asking us not to say you're nuts. Do you have deep pockets? It would take me only about 7 years of full-time work at about US$50/hr (cheap outsourced devel). If I fail I'll pay back the principal amount (no interest). > (2) -> Some of us would like LOL. BTW has anyone ever else put "Programming skills: INTERCAL on their CV?" I've never had this queried, even when I've mentioned this hot skill in interviews (for jobs I was offered)? > DO .1 <- #0 Not very polite, are you? > to be translated into > > movl $0, v1 How do you propose we (read: you :) write a testsuite that allows for the (language-mandated, IIRC) indeterminacy of the success of compiling the same program multiple times? (IIRC I'm thinking of E774 - is that the random sometimes-requirement for PLEASE? And how do you test for the sometimes-ness?) - -- "IBM has more patent litigation lawyers than SCO has employees." - unknown -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.0.4 (GNU/Linux) Comment: For info see http://www.gnupg.org iD8DBQFCH0Iw/FmLrNfLpjMRApLiAJ4gGZveYNNKKg3YSqZoqMmpWxBiZwCdED5T rG4CQWgms+uI5F8TGjcqb6Q= =Gawi -----END PGP SIGNATURE-----
