This is the first time I've heard about a language called C--, thank you for that.

The concept is not so unique as you might think tho; the more commonly used term is "tail call".

i always thought "tail call" means a function call that can be optimized in this way (located in a tail position), not the act of call-by-jumping itself. both uses make sense though

re: C--, i think it's mostly used as a compiler IR. (notably in Haskell's GHC)
