I hope everyone realizes that the COMEFROM is a joke. A language with
a
COMEFROM statement is impossible to compile.
Why? It would be very dificult to code in, and worse to maintain and
debug and maintain. Not sensible, but the compiler could easily parse
the code, replacing the COMEFROMs with appropriate GOTOs and then
produce object code.
I think it has been implemented in python, as a joke.
