Re: On exceptions (again)

I applaud this new direction. I want to be able to use Nim as a systems 
programming language, to compete with C++. I like Rust, but the real 
competition is C++, which is used in many areas. Bjarne Stroustrup said, 
amongst other things, "I'm convinced that you could design a language about a 
tenth of the size of C++ (whichever way you measure size) providing roughly 
what C++ does. ". I'd like Nim to be that language. Rust tackles part of that, 
but for a limited domain.
