parenthetcl/future-features.txt TODO * find documentation issues around the new "dict" and vector types * fix BUG: key-creation side-effect of getting missing key in dict requires solution to lvalue vs rvalue problem * allow more characters in p7proc names than just the C identifier syntax _______________________________________________________________________________ FUTURE FEATURES * (wide) primative numeric type * strongly-typed dict builtin composite type, efficient for ints & objects * modular compilation & linking * more compiler optimizations: -- especially reference counting optimizations * be 11 Laws Safe, as much as possible, except where parentheses are involved * support {expand}[command...] syntax _______________________________________________________________________________ POSSIBLE FUTURE IMPLEMENTATION CHOICES * garbage collection instead of reference counting * generate C++ instead of C -- this could really simplify the tranlated code, and thus the translator _______________________________________________________________________________
