:: Tcl (8.6) has pretty much the same capabilities as Python in this area. (When people ask for general jump anywhere capabilities, we tend to be somewhat brusque in our dismissals; it's totally against nice structured programming as well as being evil.) I'll keep an eye on the evolution of the page to see whether I want to omit or implement. Generally, should continuations be a solution of this task? Or is it more about setjmp/longjmp? –[[User:Dkf|Donal Fellows]] 17:51, 19 May 2011 (UTC)
::: Just to be clear, this is not to diss having a task on continuations. It's just they're not simple jumps; if we split, we can easily justify another task specifically for them. –[[User:Dkf|Donal Fellows]] 19:09, 19 May 2011 (UTC)
