what a gap. an abyss. inventor, and users of kdb explicitly and deliberately DO NOT WANT these things (static analysis tools, debuggers, code editors). nor they need it. language is so simple, there is no need for static analysis or code editors. (they compromised on error messages somewhat recently, though; now error messages are two words instead of one)

personally, i disagree with them on debugger. would be nice to have one.




You are right. There is an impassable abyss. I will never agree with anyone who believes that good error messages, analysis tools, or debuggers are not worth having.

Even if they can do things you cannot do?

What are you doing here if so freely admit you have a closed mind?
