And if Pascal programmers want := does Rev support yet another 
OPTION.  And if you want VB syntax, do we add yet another OPTION?

A collection of the "best" syntax from multiple languages would not, 
IMO,make the "best" development platform.  There needs to be some 
overall logic & consistency:  XTalk provides it.

So my preferred OPTION is that people learn and use the syntax 
specific to the platform with which they are working.
