You seem to have answered all the questions apart from the control

Indeed - my train had arrived at my destination and I didn't have time to respond to the next post.

As far as gentle goes the good news is I’ve managed to find the
control structures in grammar.g… The bad news is I loose the trail
once I get to types.g…

Post a topic on the forums about 'switch' - we need to have a discussion about what sort of 'switch' should actually be implemented. C-style switches are horrendous and really have no place in a 'higher-level' language in my point of view. I've seen that control structure done better in virtually every other programming language I've ever used.

It’s all very interesting… a compiler for a language for making
compilers that is compiling a language that is a compiler…

It's turtles all the way down...

Warmest Regards,

Mark.
