The DWIM language - Do What I Meant! BTW, no need for messages!
<snip> What we need is a language that dynamically adapts to the programmer. A compiler for this language could recognize not only valid syntax in the language, but also detect unskilled programmers and automatically limit their access to some (or all ;-) features. Using advanced heuristics, in some cases the compiler would just write messages like: "Sorry, you are an idiot. Compilation aborted." </snip> ---------------------------------------------------------------------- For IBM-MAIN subscribe / signoff / archive access instructions, send email to [email protected] with the message: GET IBM-MAIN INFO Search the archives at http://bama.ua.edu/archives/ibm-main.html
