This is similar to Python, and prevents the nesting ambiguity of C,
Pascal, and some other languages that use block delimiters.
don't forget fortran.
I try to, oh God how I try to. Then I come back to work in the
morning, and have to remember it all over again.

Good luck. My next compiler will do Fortran 77, and hopefully 90. It
will be #f, where # is the prefix (so 8f for 386).
A new Bentley is up, in the usual place. This adds full procedures and
functions with arguments, expression statements (like in C), and
demotes assignment from a statement to an operator. The next version
will have it right-associative (a := b := c := 0). I also plan to have
scope.
I'm surprised at how quickly I'm getting through this. I expected some
2 year project getting as much as the Sieve of Erastosthenes to work.
