2007/7/26, Stefan O'Rear <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>:
Out of curiousity, what do you find objectionable about (legal):
function argument argument2
| guard = body
| guard = body
as compared to (currently illegal):
function argument argument2
| guard = body
| guard = body
The extra space, obviously :-)
I'm well aware that this is an issue of vanishingly small consequence,
but one could likewise dismiss the entire layout business as a
needlessly complicated way to save a few keystrokes if one were so
inclined. If language complexity is the chief concern, why not
dispense with layout altogether (and a few more things beside)?
Perhaps fuzzy notions of aesthetics and intuitiveness should weigh
into the equation as well unless you don't mind programming in the
unadorned lambda calculus.
