Re: setup for Visual Studio 2008 Pro Ed. on 64-bit computer
I do not particularly like the use of 'Emit' either- the term for what the
Compiler is doing should be 'Generate' I believe.
However, with the number of Windows Language versions in use around the
world and the spread of locations from which NG users respond from, perhaps
we should allow for people making inspired translations as they write.
'Emit', as used here, is still far better than the avarage use of language
in those Far Eastern electronics equipment manuals that we've been
accustomed to recieving along with our boxes!

My experience is that compilers produce executable code. Light bulbs
emit light. Uranium emits radiations.
