Since my last request for this was buried at the bottom of a rebuttal, I shall
post this again.

I would like to start a discussion on features that make programming languages
interesting.  I have already posted what I like about Icon, but what about
other languages like CLU and Smalltalk?  If you were designing the 'Perfect
Programming Language', what features would you put in (and what features would
you leave out)?  Do these features limit the ease of use or applicability of
the languages they come from?  Let's get some dicussion in this newsgroup!! :-)
