I doubt that it's possible to find a common ground for all programming

in this. It might cover lots of intentionally-under-featured languages
(e.g. Java, VB) and interpreted languages (e.g Perl, Python), but not
all programming languages. .NET's "Managed C++" is a perfect example of
this, and I don't want to go there.

Managed C++ only exposes bits for your application to interact with the VM in a controlled fashion. You are not required to use any extensions if you just want to run on the CLR. You just compile with the /clr option to the C++ compiler and feed all your existing code to it. In fact, making Word compile with the /clr compiler was a routine test. Miguel
