Re: [Factor-talk] subseq?

2017-01-21 Thread John Benediktsson 
That's a fair point since we have larger sets of breaking changes planned. And 
better refactor tools planned that might allow an 0.98-to-0.99 upgrade path 

Okay, I agree and will revert in a few. Sorry for the churn. 

Thanks,
John.

I found only one place in my code where I have used `subseq?`, and even there it was `swap subseq?`. 21.01.2017, 14:45, "Jon Harper" :Hi,How close is the next release ? I saw Slava's taunt on github https://github.com/factor/factor/issues/1783 :)Maybe revert it for 0.98 and go with this for 0.99 ?

Thanks for the heads-up, John -

I would agree that your changes are a more natural locution. I use these
words a lot
in various vocabs, but I reckon it won't be too hard to adapt to this new
pattern.

Cheers,
~cw
