# is wanted for frozen/joined value types: joined functions with shorter syntax, records, tuples. Hope this helps, it's not fun grabbing the last few easily-typed characters not used by JS. Quasis use ` now. The punctuation soup argument is a bit general and overused against attribute modifiers for properties, IMHO, but it is a good countervailing force against lame single-character "land grabs" to try to shorten (some) syntax without thinking much about usability, semantics, future uses, or connotation in other languages. > If private name uses both @ and #, I raise *severe* concerns about it. No one ever said any such thing. /be _______________________________________________ es-discuss mailing list [email protected] https://mail.mozilla.org/listinfo/es-discuss
