first i will say i am nearly 40 :)

and comal is a language of 2 other more known ones, pascal and basic, comal
was born when a teacher in danmark have seen how bad some studients make
programs and desided to make a better language out of pascal and basic, so
comal was born, and studients begin to program better, i just wish some at
microsoft will learn comal :)

 CH> No thanks. Old DOS machines 'round here get recycled, real fast.

a shame, learn to fly comes from old computers :)

comal can build up real big programs since its module indepence and a
proc/func can be closed or global, if you then add arguments to func/proc
you get an little idear of what is possible in comal, i speak only on comal
as a global language, if we begin to talk about packages it would show the
power even more :)

if ones remember c64 with sound and graphics ?

 BP>>>> ... did you know Msged could add taglines ?
 CH>>> I did actually. It keeps adding the same one.
 BP>> i don't understand it :)
 BP>> ... did you know Msged could add taglines ?

if msged was coded in comal, this was fixed now :)
