more liquely [EMAIL PROTECTED], X#2, X>2, X\2, X.2, X|2, X,2
one would equate to
>> at X 2
["b" "c"]
another to
>> at head X 2
this breaks no current rules (it might collide with mail datatype though?) and is a
logical complement for the X/2 which we all use. If a specific datatype does not
usually return a block (like a tuple), then it would have to do so.
print ["my 0.02" (locale/currency)]
