Joe, it's not about what me, Hans or others need.  What we
need comes along, eventually.  And although I agree a few
concepts from Java or C/++ would be nice (overloading
subprocedures being my one real "want" now), it seems, like
Hans said, that if you want RPG to be like Java or C, etc..
why not just use the other language?

RPG does all that my customers need.  My wants I can get
around.

Also, don't get so personal.  We're all just here sharing
ideas.
