You know, I'm kind of surprised I've never seen a programming language
(that uses different fonts for different purposes. Something like
boldface for reserved words, italics for built-ins, so you could do
something like<br>
<br>
<b>foreach</b> index <b>in </b>mylist <b>do </b>item +=
<i>length</i>(mylist[index])<br>
<br>
or something like that. Then you could use things like "in" and "do" as
variable names as well. :-)<br>
