Coroutines

2006-06-16 Thread Dustin Laurence
I'm pretty sure this is stepping into deep quicksand, but I'll ask anyway...I'm interested in writing an FE for a language that has stackable coroutines (Lua-style, where you can yield and resume arbitrarily far down the call stack). I'm trying to wrap my head around what would be involve and how
