You didn't (want to?) understand correct. Tom said "and cobol was
supposed to be an english-like language *that even managers could
understand*...and we all know how well_that_worked;-)" So not how
well COBOL worked but how well the understanding by managers worked.
Perl
doesn't come with one of those, either, unless you count perlsh, which
I don't...
One of the most valuable tools of Perl (and I use Perl almost daily)
is "perl -d". And of course "Data::Dumper";. So; Two of the most
valuable Tools for Perl are "perl -d" and "Data::Dumper"; (Nobody
expects the spanisch inquisition)... Something like that wolud be
helpful in Script Editor too.
Since we make Smile, why would Apple do that? Let them maintain
AppleScript it's enough work.
