If only the TRS-80 had "CreateRegularExpression" back in the day ...

I just broke out my CoCo the other day. I wish you could define a function or even set a variable and GOTO that.

    REGEX = 1000
    GOTO REGEX

Computed GOTO was supported by some dialects of BASIC, just not the most common Microsoft flavours. The Atari 400/800 could do it IIRC.
