So that they don't have to be keywords.
What is the rule for use of '@'?
It does feel inconsistent to me too...
@word are attributes. Attributes were added late to the D language in
order to minimize the effects of adding new keywords,
That isn't true. Reducing keywords was NOT presented a primary rationale
for adding attributes.
Thanks for clearing up my memory. Was the primary rational user attributes or
something else?
