syntax would go a long way in usability.

Someone is working on them and a prototype exists (look in fpc-devel's
archive for December). Now the code only needs to be cleaned up.

In my head I already play around with a shorter/nicer syntax at least for
expressions (thus lambda expressions ;) ), but most ideas rely on type
inference which I'm very reluctant to add, because that's something that's
not part of the sprit of Pascal.

Sven
