Curiously, Python and Lingo are almost identical languages when Lingo is used in dot-syntax format. The python example supplied is very nearly valid Lingo.


When Lingo is used in verbose format, it is almost identical to Transcript.

dot-syntax was an evolution of the language which did not exist in original Lingo. Though I've no doubt it was an expensive evolution in terms of development costs.

Incidentally, I've decided to add Python to my list of languages recently, specifically because it looks like the migration from Lingo should be a snap.
