Untitled
This is soooooooooooooo freaking cool.... it kicks Java and C# Synax's ASS!!! It's the lang I have been looking for the past few years... I was about to start working on my own (to be finished some time before 2020) it is missing SOME things I want.... but its got everything else :)

can we get an example of source from limbo please ?

Hello, world
I don't think "sh.m" is needed in the "hello, world" program. — DAGwyn 23:56, 22 February 2007 (UTC)

It's a poor example of Limbo. We need one that shows off the simplicity of its concurrency approach using channels. -- Ralph Corderoy (talk) 12:51, 10 June 2009 (UTC)

Garbage collection
Inferno uses reference counting plus a four-color garbage collector. Reference counting deals with any memory that isn't cyclic.
