This language will be based on two important concepts of modern programming languages: objects, and exceptions. My language will unify these two great concepts, the object and the exception, into a single construct called an "objection". All program logic will be encapsulated in objection handlers. Objections can be either "sustained" or "overruled". The entry point for all programs is the raising of an objection. The new language will facilitate a new programming paradigm, which I call "programming by objection". Have a nice day. -- mark
