Thank you, Brian! This is important work.
Not a thorough review, just some notes from reading the doc file:
1. I don't like the _ suffix for keywords. Just call it kwimport or
something like that.
8. 'default_' Again with the awful practice of appending _.
Delphi designers realized this problem years ago and they came up with
a solution:
http://docwiki.embarcadero.com/RADStudio/XE4/en/Fundamental_Syntactic_Elements#Extended_Identifiers
Basically, Delphi allows escaping reserved identifiers with a '&'. I
wonder how D solves that problem when interfacing to COM classes if
they have for example a function named "scope".
C# allows this as well. For example, you can have:
void MyVoid(string @int) { ... }
The name is actually int for purposes of reflection and the like, the @
just tells the compiler that it's not a keyword.
Yes, and this is important to actually have the real name without a '_'
or any other prefix or suffix. Is there an enhancement proposal for this
in the bugzilla?
