Re: Will RPG eve become an object-oriented language?

If anyone *really *cares about OORPG, there's a simple open-source answer.

Author and publish a front-end preprocessor whose input is your OORPG

That's how C++ started: It was a preprocessor that outputs C.

object-oriented language. At that time she indicated that it was a subject
