Subject: Re: Ousterhout and Tcl lost the plot with latest paper From: Erik Naggum <erik@naggum.no> Date: 1997/04/13 Newsgroups: comp.lang.scheme,comp.lang.scheme.scsh,comp.lang.lisp,comp.lang.tcl,comp.lang.functional,comp.lang.c++,comp.lang.perl.misc,comp.lang.python,comp.lang.eiffel Message-ID: <3069927028655845@naggum.no> * Chris Trimble | Perl has its place -- as do Tcl, Python, C++, Scheme, and Self -- and | is great for certain tasks. But, I agree with Ousterhout on this one: | there is no end-all-be-all language out there. BEOL and ENDOL -- the ultimate general purpose programming languages. (not mine, I didn't keep notes of where I saw it first.) #\Erik -- I'm no longer young enough to know everything.
