RE: SV: C style assignment of variable values

[Joel Fritz <JFritz@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Nobody wants a C clone. <g> 

One of the things that has kept my interest in RPG is its evolution over the
past few years.  I like some of the features of C syntax and would use them
if we had them in RPG.  The increment operators are really handy and don't,
to me, represent a major conceptual leap.  They're also more of a nice to
have than a necessity.  If we get them, no one would _have_ to use them.
You could preclude them with shop standards.
