Does any one knows what happend with such an atempt?
Apple rightly decided that this didn't make any sense to spend their
precious development resources on. Anybody who refuses to use
Objective-C because of the syntax probably also has bigger problems
with the language, of which the syntax is only the first level.
Personally, while I have my wish-list (like everyone else) I'd be very
happy if Apple took an extremely conservative approach to changing the
Objective-C language. It's an exceptionally nice language as it is
right now, and I don't want to see it change for the worse.
I agree wholeheartedly.
In addition, there are bindings to Cocoa for Java, Perl, Python,
AppleScript, JavaScript and whatnot, so you should certainly be able to
write programs in the syntax your prefer (someone might even come up
with a binding for the GNU lisp dialect that is used in GNUStep).
Cheers, Anjo
