past for some quick and dirty admin processes across my network.
One code branch is brilliant (but not needed for me ... yet)
Variant variables and undeclared types are good - even though I prefer to declare variables
Module name space means not really changing mental gears from VB6
Optional case sensitive string functions sells it for me
C extension will be useful when I get around to it
Arrays. I'm still used to keeping track of them by numeric indices
What would be really good would be a utility to take VB forms (without code) and to turn them
into viable SB forms - sadly, I know that I don't have the patience (or skill) to write it. An ANSI
terminal forms handler, OTOH, may be within my wheelhouse - sometimes a text interface is
just what the doctor ordered.
That small footprint is useful, even though I generally have stacks of memory available,
but combined with thread-based meory model, means that multi-process and multi instance
isn't going to break the bank
