Yes, but I don't like your chances. More than one of the REALSoftware staff has responded to me, when I've suggested something like this, that it isn't "basic like". They also seem to think it would be less beginner-friendly. They also have an aversion to adding more "punctuation" to the language. Personally, I think Python syntax is famously clear and beginner- friendly, and I'd love to see REALbasic steal quite a bit of it. But the current staff at REAL just aren't going to do it, from what I can tell.
