And, having been writing the info docs for OpenCOBOL, I can't say I disagree with Texinfo's position in the list.

Rebol: 1 in 666.667
Is any more proof needed that the language is evil? |

I also note that O'Caml, Scheme, Haskell, Smalltalk and a few other languages I've evangelized appear to have fairly low ratios.
Nifty. |

Lua: 154, one of the lowest on the list. Lua is a very neat and pretty language. |

CodeMonkey2000; a relatively useless indicator for scientific purposes.
Inform ... doesn't say that it might be part of the fiction. For Lua, who knows, the comments may start with "this is good @#$%"

Hmm, perl has a shockingly high number of occurances.
Perhaps I should learn Ada? I didn't see anything that beat 1:7000  |
