The-command-that-must-not-be-named is like a fine cigar. You know you shouldn't. You know it's bad for you. Nonetheless, it's satisfying when done right.
If the use of GOTO is not proper in UniBasic, why does the language include the verb? I have plenty of electric power sockets in my house. I STILL like to crank up my Victrola and listen to Les Brown and His Band of Renown on 78 once in a while.

For example Fortran 4 or original Basic. Using it e.g. in Fortran 77 or in UniBasic would already be not a proper use. The same as playing records on crank record player would be good idea if you have no electric power socket in your house. ----- Original Message ----- From: "George Gallen" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: <[email protected]> Sent: Tuesday, October 04, 2005 4:59 PM Subject: RE: [U2] the 4 letter word > The important part here is knowing when to use it properly. > > Even a hand crank record player can be used properly. > Just because there are better ways or alternative ways doesn't make the > the manual record player unusable.
