I feel compelled to add that there are televangelists that make well-presented arguments to seemingly rational people and are successful enough at it that they commute between mansions in Learjets.
I didn't exactly write a well-thought-out and immaculately presented treatise in post #29, but I think it hints at the very few situations where the use of a goto might be advocated. It's not a LOT of cases, by any stretch of the imagination. I would look askance at one who preaches otherwise, however eloquently.
One may make a case that in a language without exception handling, the equivalent functionality might be implemented using 'goto.' I reiterate that the task should be undertaken by one who is intimately familiar with what happens to system state before and after such machinations.
