    I find that syntax really unpleasant (it would probably also be a nightmare to parse in all the settings expressions can exist). Why reinvent the wheel? += (and all its many kin) are ubiquitous, not only in C-like languages, but also FreeBASIC, VB.Net, Java, JavaScript, Python, PHP, Ruby... In fact it would probably be quicker to list the languages that _don't_ implement it!

    A developer coming from any of these languages would lament their absence, so why inflict it? These are already implemented in twinBASIC.
