Derek Baum commented on FELIX-1500:
-----------------------------------
I think this issue could be re-opened.
It is a well-defined sub-set of FELIX-1487.
I think we should change the priority of | and ;, regardless of any support for
handling handling script files in FELIX-1487.
This is the same priority as Unix shells, and Peter Kriens has indicated that
he would support this:
"About the priority of | and ; ... I remember thinking long and hard about this
but forgot why I picked this model, it still seems slightly more powerful
because the newline acts as a ';' with a higher priority than the '|' but I am
not opposed to switching the priority."

> Key: FELIX-1500

> Project: Felix
> Issue Type: Improvement
> Components: Gogo
> Reporter: Guillaume Nodet
>
> The main driver would be to support scripts files, not only lines.
> The parser needs to be aware of new lines for readability, as complex
> closures can't be inlined easily.
> This leads to have the parser replace (semantically, i mean) newlines by
> either:
> ( line ) ;
> or
> line ;
> The first one would be needed to keep the | priority over ; while the second
> one would be appropriate if we change the priority.
> It seems more intuitive to me that newlines don't change the priority and are
> just considered as a separator of commands.
> Additionally, this would be also closer to unix shells.
