That's good of him. It was very interesting. But getting to the point where we'd have nmh in C++ to that style, getting those benefits, is more than s/gcc/g++/ so we'd then be embarking on the march to `good' C++. Effort that would probably be better spent getting real garbage collection, a standard library with networking, text protocols, crypto, ..., all in a simpler language so those who don't know it could learn more readily. https://golang.org/pkg/ -- Cheers, Ralph. https://plus.google.com/+RalphCorderoy -- Nmh-workers https://lists.nongnu.org/mailman/listinfo/nmh-workers
