hi,

how about a procedure attribute "inlined", so that procedures will be expaned like macros at the place they are called. wold be a handy feature for use with threads.

What do you mean exactly by "wold be a handy feature for use with threads." ? Inlined procedures are faster, it's the only advantage.

for example you start a thread, think of a server, for a user. the user has to have access to a db. it would be nice to have non shared code (regular procedures) for the db. the db code i would still have to write only once, it could be inlined. that btw is an advantage of modula c++ etc.
as for being faster - sure i'd like that too.
