One thing that never ceases to amaze me was that the .NET/CLI languages concept of a standard variable set definition shared across multiple languages so that any language could interact with any other, has never been fully taken up elsewhere. I even tried to get the .MONO crowd to allow multiple languages to be used in a single class before I gave up .NET. However PHP can talk to C and C++ and other compiled languages and is not bad for testing out ideas that can then be hardwired in a compiled language when pretty static to speed things up.On Wed, 11 Nov 2009, kevin wrote:I thought of a Lug Xmas List manager!
