Quite often, when using "do...over" there is a need for having a counter that
increases
automatically on each loop.
Currently one needs to use a separate variable that gets explicitly increased
within the loop, e.g.:
i=1
do idx over dir
say "entry #" i": idx="idx "dir[idx]="dir
i=i+1
end
It would be great if one could use optionally a counter in the do...over case
as well, something like:
do idx over dir counter i
say "entry #" i": idx="idx "dir[idx]="dir
end
where "counter" would be a subkeyword defining a loop variable which starts out
with "1" and gets
increased by one after each loop.
