In your examples the counter is a simple index and there would be no
substantial differences from "loop i = 1 .. nelem(S)"; IMO a proper
extension of the foreach loop to arrays would look more or less like
<hansl>
strings S = defarray("A", "B", "C")
loop foreach i S -q
eval strlen($i)
endloop
</hansl>
Apart from being rather cool, can you elaborate on the potential
advantages?
