My wish is that somebody would develop a Fourth-Generation Language
for the Amiga.

At the risk of encouraging flames of biblical proportion, It's a shame to have
to code in an admittedly powerful language like C to unleash the power of the
Amiga.  I keep telling myself, there has to be a better way.  At work we use
the Cincom Systems product MANTIS.  The reports of 10-to-1 productivity gains
are not exaggerated.  I want the results not the hassles of debugging a 2nd/
3rd GL that requires me to be aware of Rom Kernal routines to be able to
accomplish simple task.  Is anybody working on something which provides the
power of the machine without the pain?
