Of course you can. You can use debug prints. You can edit the C++: the generated code is actually documented. There's a special flag to generate heaps of documentation. And Felix has debugging features in the language. And most importantly .. the developer -- me -- is highly sensitive to user requirements. If you need extra debugging support I'll provide it. Read carefully. *user* requirements. If you're not using it, I'll have fun arguing with you but it's unlikely anything will be done. > Right, that was exactly my question, recall, I have never asked for lexical > closure or dynamic closures. Just explanations about how it works, and > examples of how you use it. You have to write code. There are tons of examples. There are hundreds of pages of documented examples in the tutorial and regression tests, plus several varying size tools from a file copy utility to a complete webserver, written in Felix. There is evidence it is easy to learn. I had an electrical engineer with C++ knowledge write a complete prepaid phone service in Felix in 3 days. Several other developers wrote stuff just as fast -- Mike Maul wrote a Wiki in around a week. And then a package manager in about the same time. Shayne actually wrote some stuff using Monads which is really advanced and really pushed the type system. I kinda wish people would start off doing more basic stuff, but the point is Felix is really easy to learn and use. -- john skaller skal...@users.sourceforge.net http://felix-lang.org ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Subversion Kills Productivity.
