Probably because you didn't make yourself quite clear. I was also
responding to another point, namely the assignment of a label name
to a variable. I didn't realize you had more than one label to
goto. However, you could do multiple setjmp's with DIFFERENT
jmp_buf's, possibly an array of them, and longjmp(jmp_buf[x],val).
This is clearly absurd, but interesting for at least two seconds.
BTW, which NPR do you listen to & where? I love WAMU in DC, lotsa
bluegrass & jazz. WETA also carries the Grateful Dead concerts
New Years Eve. Send me your FORTH interpreter when you're done,
I'd like to play with it.
