Re: Future of RPG was: Open Access for RPG
If RPG is taken to 100% free form then I would totally agree with
taking all the best syntax from other languages and putting them into
RPG. But trying to tailor it after a specific language wouldn't be as
beneficial in the end because you would be taking the baggage of that
language's syntax with it. For example, we shouldn't really need a
semi-colon at the end of statements.
At the end of the day, any major changes to RPG to make it more modern
should be critiqued heavily because many times things are added to
languages as flavors of the year and end up being baggage in the long
run.
