Thank you Michael,
This is a good advise :-) .
I guess I really should stop using Delphi in the future :-) .
I am surely not using FPC and staying with Delphi for now, but I appreciate
your advise.
Having less people use the language is the way to go :-D .
If you want to drop FPC for because it forces you to move a line and
have to type a name in front of it, then yes, I think you are not on your
place working with pascal.
You should then move to C or Javascript, it will dramatically improve
the number of characters you must type.
No one argues about the concept of closure.
We do not want you to have to declare N classes and M methods to be able to use
it.
We do argue about how this can be implemented in a way that has some regard for
the
fundamentals of pascal: verbosity, and the requirement to declare everything before
you use it.
A local nested, named procedure has been part of Pascal since very long time.
The proposal just enhances that idea.
Michael.
