No surprises there... :)

And I guess accessing the Windowze functions is out, like we are able to
access intuition, graphics, exec and all that on the Amiga?

It would be interesting, but since I am an Amiga developer first and
foremost; it won't affect myself personally, however, I know of plenty of
people who are crying out for a BASIC style language on the PC which is not
so full of clutter! (Me makes no mention of Visual something of the other
;)
One last thing, will you be able to check if a command has succeeded? :))
Just that sometimes with Blitz on the Amiga it is quite difficult to work
out whether something has worked out; or not.
And do you still own an Amiga? :) Or more importantly; still use it? :)
Regards
Nick.
