Yes! Please write to Steven Watt. I think it would definitely help if it is clear to Steven that many people would like to have Aldor open source. Maybe what we need is a kind of "petition" that peop
Here is the unhappy result of using 'pretend' this same way in Spad: (1) -> )sys cat cast.spad )abbrev package CAST cast cast(): exports == implementation where exports == with cast1: Integer -> Floa
I don't know of a good definition of "strong typing" that does not promote particular languages one is interested in, and at the same time downplay languages one does not particular like/prefer/use.
I would be glad to, but I prefer to do it by private email. There is also some contact information at the Aldor web site. See: http://www.aldor.org/contact.html Regards, Bill Page.
Greetings! Can't believe this thread has come full circle like this! Wow. May I please suggest if this is ever of interest that we consider using the ML that built atop GCL for many years and appears
Not at all! I am still very enthusiastic to try to help anyone who is willing to share their expertise with other Axiom users and developers. I think you are setting an excellent example to others. T

Dear Peter, * I was waiting for your small Aldor patch and never see it. Did you send it somewhere ? The main concern of this mail is if you are able to compile ecfact.as (attached) and _execute_ the
During the recent Aldor Workshop Stephen Watt said that it is his intention to publish an "interpretation" of APL2 that would clarify exactly how it is intended to apply to specific situations. For e

Not easily, because: yes it is. I wrote the following hack to be able to coerce Aldor generators to Axiom Streams. Maybe this is of help. What the thing below really does is to make "delay" available
Hello, is there a way to get hold of generate$Stream using the aldor compiler? I spent quite some time until figuring out that generate is probably a keyword in aldor (I could not check as the aldor
I don't suggest that "pretend" be removed. Just like general casts in C, or similar constructs in other languages, I don't think it should be removed and yet make Spad (or Aldor) expressive enough. H
However, many times I've come across to bugs in the Spad compiler either unable to perform that automatic conversion, or that automatic conversion seriously confuses it. Note also that if an operatio
