I don't know very much about languages, but this seems like a very reasonablesolution to the problem at hand. It's not confusing for developers and it would immediately give us the ability to have synonyms for the different roles which would make Ubiquity much more user friendly.
This would, however, mean that a lot more processing would go into the different parsers...but since it saves us command writers more time and give us great benefits (and we don't have to write it), I'm all for it =P Topher On Wed, Feb 25, 2009 at 12:35 AM, Blair McBride <[email protected]> wrote: > > I'm pretty excited about this.
