Thanks, Ali.
Yeah, early C++ was C, watched it evolve. Programming in Forth,
C, Icon during those years. Found, find, C++ too hot for most to
handle, so why?
And yes, I'd agree that Walter's native C++ compiler was the big
ticket item, in C++ evolution.
And a deeper thanks, Ali, for the book.
Just in case you ever want to try Unicon programming, or need to
glue to some COBOL data, I put these on offer, umm, meaning free.
- Unicon Programming <https://unicon.sourceforge.io/up/>
- GnuCOBOL FAQ <https://gnucobol.sourceforge.io/faq/index.html>
Hoping those might let me return the favour for your D book. Nice
work. ;-)
Have good.
