Whoa. I actually had a moment of panic there. Then I checked for myself. I don't see anything in Apoc4 about getting rid of while. It may be excluded from evolution, but it's still there, sorta like the alligator. Larry uses while in several examples. > So, the answer to your question is: yes, I do propose that there should > be an elsif, elsloop and elsfor. That's it. Three words, not an > expansive list of ever-more-complex words. Why not also elswhile? According to Apoc4, while still gets the cool loop controls like NEXT, why shouldn't it get to join the els party? Even alligators evolve a little. BTW, like so much in Perl, I found elsfor etc. ugly at first, then I grew to like it. Is it really that lexically nonsensical? -Miko
