You appear to be making the assertion that: Any generator of C is
topical here, not with regard to discussion of the generated C, but
with regard to the generator.  Feels more like simple advocacy of a
not remotely close to C language.  Are you saying that discussion of
xHarbour implementation that compiles without a C intermediate form
isn't relevant here, but one that compiles with one is?  And do you
actually believe that is somehow sensible, or are you just trolling at
this point?


David:

    Yes, I'm just trolling for converts.

    But your comment 'not remotely close' is absolutely false. Pronably, 
xHarbour is the closest language to C there is without actually being C 
itself. It was created by C experts who were trying (in the late 1990's) to 
build a better higher-level language but based on the speed and power of C. 
They did it: xHarbour !

    ... and it is being improved and made ever more powerful every day.
