You can already port them by using the same workarounds that FPLs targetting C have used (i.e. goto when possible and trampolines otherwise). They'll just be slow and uninteroperable but lots of things are already slow because of the lack of structs which cannot be worked around. -- Dr Jon Harrop, Flying Frog Consultancy Ltd. http://www.ffconsultancy.com/?e -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "JVM Languages" group.
