THOSE MFSOBs! They stole my deal. Again! I was working on a DotNet based shell, a.k.a. command prompt, that used C-style syntax and supported immediate execution, functional programming (ala Logo), and compilation, and had easy access to most aspects of the computer (hard drive, registry, etc., etc.). And between the Windows PowerShell and F# they have stolen all my ideas. Oh well.

They have been working on F# for at least 3 years. I started a thread on it on the other forum. It is similar to O'Caml.
