It would be better for emulation and writing from a computer, programs look alot better and it makes sense if you're going to implement new rpl for something but the HP 50g in the future. Interesting. It could easily be done by making the commands case-insensitive (we still need to accept the capitals since we are aiming to be source code compatible with existing code), so it's no big deal to implement it. My only concern is that we are aiming to be compatible with existing code, and creating all these extra reserved words, any existing code will give a syntax error when you try to compile it if you use variables that are now reserved words. I can easily see myself using a variable named 'exp' or 'arg' for example. Is this a tradeoff worth exploring? |
