Ruud(etal),

Would like to suggest you add a PRINT statement to Kixtart. The syntax would be like:

PRINT <expr>

So for example, the following statements:

PRINT "Hello World"
PRINT 1+2

would yield

C:\>kix32 test
Hello, World
3

Obviously we can "print" to the console today - by leaving the result of an expression "hangin-out there" (an unassigned expression) - but here's the thing ...

Just like with explicit vars and vars in strings etc - this would help in moving Kixtart to a more formalized usage. Maybe even leading to one day - having a SetOption that will suppress writing un-assigned expressions to the console. So that suppressing return codes like this:

$RC = SetOption(...)
$RC = WriteValue(...)

Might be a thing of the past one day. Discussion welcome.
