Surely, introducing the ternary operator and the '++' operator would just be a syntactical change and I'm not sure the comparison with pointers is a fair one.

Personally I can live without them but I'd love to see scripting support for all of the cftags. Wrapping cfquery et al in a function just so I can call it from cfscript is a real pain.

Cheers, Pete (aka lad4bear)

Sure it is. CFML is not C. CFML should not evolve to be more like C. If I
wanted to program in C, I'd do that. CFML doesn't have pre- and
post-increment operators, either. Should it, just because it can? How about
pointers? Oh, that'd be great!
