As far as I know, in SPAD, | | => iterate (in fact, not sure about that one) | | => "next" | | => "iterate" | | => nil | | => "leave" | | are all equivalent. And I proposed to make them all the same. The semantics | of => should *not* be changed.
My suggestion is that all, except the `=> iterate', are not documented. We should be advertizing only the documented form. Personally, I do not see the need to recommend them. OpenAxiom will unspport them when I get time. Almost al of them are confusing, specially the `=> "leave"' form. -- Gaby ------------------------------------------------------------------------- Check out the new SourceForge.net Marketplace.
