So, well, my first question on this list is admittedly somewhat simple, but I
managed to delay it long enough and now I think I should ask about it: Does
($) have any relevance at all except for being a somewhat handier version of
parentheses?
In addition to the other responses, I add this:
The section expression ($v) -- for some value v appropriate appropriate to
the source code context -- is sometimes very useful.
(I think the other feature -- lower precedence of $ w.r.t normal function
application -- is covered by your question.)
