I have used 8th in simple terms as I'm becoming familiar with the language and features. I don't find myself comfortable enough yet to write a complex application with it but I'm getting closer and closer, my problem is finding the time. Too many things going on right now but 8th is in my future of tools to use for complex applications. My plans once I have more time is to use it in experimenting with an optimizing code generator, 8th has a lot of the features and tools built in that I feel I will need to get the job done. I guess it's time to re-print the manual, I have always liked having a book form of manuals even to browse through and become acquainted with the features, though mostly I use the electronic ones to be able to search for items of interest when coding. Out of curiosity how is 8th written? In C, the core in C and maybe the bulk in 8th itself or some other combination? Keep safe, and keep coding. -- Cecil - k5nwa
