I think you are misunderstanding what I wrote. "Iterators don't have a "left" or "right" side, they have a start and an end?" This is my point. At that time I felt that left and right made more sense because as we see iterators pick up in use it might be confusing to see other functions elsewhere that create iterators using start/end in their names. I thought that left/right made more sense because it's very unambiguous that these are not generating functions, and left/right refers very clearly to the left or right side of the string. Someone later replied saying it would still be confusing with script that is rendered right-to-left, but encoded left-to-right. There is no win ~ it's been decided anyway, so I'm just laying down my pitchfork. _______________________________________________ es-discuss mailing list [email protected] https://mail.mozilla.org/listinfo/es-discuss
