Good question!
Forever would have worked in the Robotics extension... but the developers
working on the product were extremely fussy about wording and they refused
to use the same word for two things that don't work exactly the same way.
Don't ask me how they differ, I don't remember. It's got to do with the
"internals" of the program flow. One of the robots that we support doesn't
really support parallel processes and we had to "fake" it.

Subject: Forever and loop
I'm just curious to know why the forever command was changed to loop
when Microworlds EX was developed for the RCX robot? I assume forever
wouldn't have worked for some reason.
Thanks, Erik Nauman
