So could you then do something like
every line ? while tab(upto(&letters)) do move(1) do
write("not letter")
??? I bet you can. Personally, I've found the best way to learn Icon is
to make a small test program experimenting with the line in question. The
best part is that even if it didn't do what you expected it to do. It
probably did something interesting.
