Why don't Python editors indicate tabs/spaces with some sort of symbol? Perhaps '{' for tab and ' ' for space. To be even more helpful, the editor could indicate the end of a block with '}' ?

The answer is ALWAYS to compromise and keep everyone somewhat happy. Therefore, I propose dm\dm\yyyy.

Yay, editing obscure json config files to get it to do (almost) exactly what you want - Windows is slowly, but surely, turning into Linux!

In any case, I prefer Google's follow-up - Ogle (or should that be Oglelang?).

Yes - APL. That could just be because I wouldn't know what appalling APL code looks like (or perhaps ALL APL looks appalling) :)

I think support in this case means Microsoft tests the old code against new Windows versions. Don't know what they would do if it didn't work. Still, it is an excellent RAD language (Runaway After Deployment).

Haven't used VB6 in years. I have seen some appalling stuff written in it (functions called "UseThisOne", "ThisOneWorks" (it didn't) and "Fred2" (wonder what happened to Fred1 ?) together with your own personal favourite lots of "Resume Next" etc).

Couldn't see this mentioned anywhere.

VB6 just got an important boost from Microsoft blogger Scott Hanselman. In his post (bit.ly/2rcPD0f), Hanselman shows how to configure a VB6 app to be hosted in the Windows 10 Store, using the Microsoft Desktop Bridge infrastructure and tools (bit.ly/2HFVzcc). That’s huge, as hosting an app in the store means that Microsoft is at least somewhat vouching for its compatibility and content. Potential purchasers perceive it as sort of a Good Computing Seal™

Real programmers rejoice!
