Do you know what 'c' does?  It makes a COPY of the message for this recipe

Interesting. My vision of this more to think of CONTINUE with message
processing afterwards even if conditions matched. Is this basically the
same, or are there any differences in this speaking? I find CONTINUE
concept easier to understand than thinking of local copies, but maybe

Hi, in our mental process, maybe that CONTINUE could be quite the same, so
using it, if easier, is useful... But when I work with a machine, I
usually think like i was the machine itself, so this commands are nothing
more than my own language... and a lot of people thinks as this. 

So, in his way of thinking, he have to process this "phrase"
(condictions+actions) doing a copy of your message, and so not loosing
it... I mean, I (the program) own only a copy of your message, and I've to
process it. What to do ? I give it to a list of "phrases"; when a "phrase"
match it, the "phrase" know what to do with your message, and it doesn't
exist any more, and when doesn't match, give me bach the message.
So, if I want a "phrase" that don't eat your message when matching, so
I've to give her only a COPY of your message...

(maybe that this is also conditioned by in which way I think I should
implement this program, isn't it ???)

Happy to hear such idea...
