My entire point Neil was simply that,
"short-time-to-learn" should also be a consideration.? To me, a language that
borrows heavily from an *already known* source like English or even BASIC is easier to
learn, than one which requires that every command be learned again without any prior
foundation.? I am not a subscriber to tech.? I don't think I want to be.
Wikitech-l is undoubtedly the right forum for this discussion, so we
really should continue this discussion there.
I find it rather difficult to understand exactly what you want here.
Could you please give an example, even a rough one, of the sort of
syntax you are proposing?
For example, how would you write something like, say, this artificial
example:
{{#switch:
{{#iferror: {{#expr: {{{1}}} + {{{2}}} }} | error | correct }}
| error = that's an error
| correct = {{{1}}} + {{{2}}} = {{#expr: {{{1}}} + {{{2}}} }}}}
in your new notation?
