Thank you for the tip. I'm feeling pretty stupid having never heard of (or not remembering) Xerox Mesa. (I'm just old enough to have briefly used Xerox Star.) > ...restricted GOTO, which could jump only forwards and only out of a block. I guess that's roughly how I imagined how GOTO / "better" exception handling should work. I've long wanted (wave arms) Visual Basic style error handling, but "inline" (not off to the side). I probably unwittingly gleaned the notion from Mesa. I'm now foraging for Mesa stuff. Here's two quick hits. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mesa_(programming_language) Mesa Language Manual v5.0 https://doc.lagout.org/science/0_Computer%20Science/0_Comput... Hopefully I'll find a working implementation. |
