Actually, I'm pretty sympathetic to redundant variable declarations, because cut/copy/pasting around code often requires tedious finessing of declarations. With that said, I wish variables did not require |var| declarations and were just local by default ala Python. It would solve this issue and improve overall security to boot (from dumb coder mistakes), but unfortunately it's too late to change :( _______________________________________________ Es-discuss mailing list [email protected] https://mail.mozilla.org/listinfo/es-discuss
