Don't you think that the readability of the Oberon syntax is much better than the readability of C (or C-like Java)? I think that a change of syntax would not at all result in an improvement. : As the subject says, this is a weird idea (and I know that, don't point : it out to me) just good for producing the "marketing hype" that Oberon : currently lacks. I think, a big problem of today's software is that many ugly things are introduced for the sake of "marketing hypes". Let's not do the same thing with Oberon. mfg, Roland
