As anyone written or thought about writing a code refactorer for
U2-BASIC, this would/could/should standardize code semantics and also
appearance?
If this could be made configurable to the style you want to use then
that would be good...and any program with a GOTO in would be
deleted...without warning ;-).
So any proper well-written program would get deleted without warning?
:-)
About the ONLY place where GOTO really is the best way of handling
things is dealing with error conditions - and this is the code most
programs (not only in MV) lack.
Most well-written programs will contain GOTOs, to clean up the mess
caused when the program trips over something the computer or user should
have done and hasn't (and it's not always the programmer's fault - it
could well be hardware failure, network dropped, or something stupid
like that).
Cheers,
Wol
