Delphi's new keyword -- FOREACH
Danny Thorpe has said that the next version of Delphi codename Diamondback will include for both Win32 and .NET the FOREACH keyword. Here is the quote:
In the next release of Delphi, the compiler will support a new kind of for loop, dubbed the "for..in" loop. A "for..in" loop works just like a regular Delphi for loop except that you don't have to deal with a loop index variable. If you want to run through all the strings in a collection object, you just say "Here's the collection, here's where I want to see each string, now gimme!"
correction -- the syntax is for...in and it will match foreach from C#.

Uh... no, he specifically said there *won't* be a FOREACH keyword... :-)
