Interesting question.  We don't have classes, so I'm not sure what we would
be encapsulating and where we would encapsulate it.

I developed Prothon so there would be a language without all this complexity
and things to argue over.  I guess people don't want simplicity after all.
Without complexity there would be nothing to argue about on mailing lists
:-)

If you want to see what I mean by simplicity, check this out:
