I propose to rethink the syntax of the brakets of Embperl.
My reason is:
We have massive problems with Embperl and Adobe Golive 4,
one of those WYSIWYG-Editors and a common one too.
In the older days [- seemed to be a good choice,
since WYSIWYG-Editors didn't knew any Server-Side-Scripting
language. So the choices were:
[- any content text
<% / <? unknown tags
<!--# pseudo HTML comments
Nowadays editors know of some special tags, as they
are MS-ASP in GoLive, HomeSite, Frontpage and maybe
others or <?foobar argument="value" ?> in XML-
oriented editors (<? are processing instructions
for the parsers, so this is excatly what the syntax should
be in a world moving fast towards XHTML.)
I would suggest an alternative syntax for Embperl like
<%- being the same as [- and so on just to keep
our HTML-pages safe after they are worked on by
the graphics department.
Comments welcome,
