It's easy to #### stuff with gotos when you're learning.... so (in my experience) use of them is discouraged - so you tend to regard them with a sort of deep distrust.  I've not really had any deep experience with C or C++ - only Java (although i might do some more interesting stuff for me group project next year ), but I think that gotos tend to become far less necessarry the higher up the language becomes.

'GOTO' tags are absolutely vital in actionscript (Flash)

i can't think of anything else to substitute it with

As a former COBOL programmer, (i'm on Java and VB now) i can say that GOTOs aren't so bad...
Many programs (not games) are often just updated from older languages (like COBOL and so on) and GOTO's in the right places are an useful tool, that saves time and code lines...
