For the record, we've been discussing these issues off and on for
roughly
a year now. The named value discussion appears to have started at
least
several years before that. I wasn't working on Bison then though.
So it is tricky then.
As far as I can tell, you have agreed that there are problems with
"exp.sum", "exp/sum", and "sum:exp".
No. Only the last one. You claimed there were some tokenization
problems with
the first two, but I didn't see it.
I'm guessing it'll come up as I catch Paul up, so I'll explain it
again
then.
I like Paul's suggestion using "#" for indicating variable names. So
that one could be used, in my opinion.
