The post by the OP= very enlightening. Now I somehwat understand what people mean when they claim the CELL is difficult to program. Difficult may be a relative term, but you certainly must "think different"
I assume however, some enterprising individuals have designed into the IDE/SDK , ways for the programmer to check syntax for the known "gotchas", e.g. a right click menu in the eidtor or whatnot. (In lieu of a hypertext flowcharting editor that spits out corrected syntax)
