Sure. Long as you realize that not everybody shares your pessimism
about translators, and that if you do implement Lua support, people
will attempt it.
You've got a deal. I'll make sure to swing by Bill's office tomorrow
and remind him about his "realization". Let me write that down. On a
post-it or something.
2 years break, that's a bargain Bill.
If CMake went to Lua, presumably these IDEs would want to do the same
things in Lua.
That's indeed obvious, these IDEs would absolutely switch to LUA too.
Do they have a mailing list? My gut feeling is that they would want
to hear about it. Like now.
I've written 1/2 of a translator for a much harder problem.
[...] but I've proven the
viability of large scale translation in general, even using extremely
crude methods.
And by proving it you mean it was never adopted or even finished, and
it is actually not translating anything that can build Mozilla.
Because if that's the case, I prove it too. It's made of air. I stock
it in a jar, but it's at the bottom of a river at the moment.
