So what happens when someone creates a RC page for a language that isn't listed on HOPL? For example I could imagine starting a page about itcl (which is to Tcl kinda like C++ is to C) but which isn't listed over there. Just curious...

It would still link to a search for the language. I don't think there is a way to check whether a page exists for a language on the HOPL so we're basically just hoping. --Mwn3d 19:26, 5 March 2008 (MST)

The J search isn't bad at all. J is right on top...TWICE. It seems to work pretty well for other languages too.
