I see no point or gain in the "fluent" code.
First C++ has no with-statement and second I definitely prefer my output to
be on one line. :)
With StdIO::stdOutPrinter() do begin out("Helllo World
");out(42);out("");hex();out(42);line(); end;
;)
Also in other cases fluent interfaces are rather nice to have.
Though they also don't force you to be used in that way :) (at least if
they really only return Self/This).
I guess it is a matter of style.
