was even valid python, blech. But that's a pretty contrived example. I'm not suggesting something huge and radical like totally redefining how assignment works :P I'm just suggesting a small change that I believe would have repercussions far above the weight class of the change itself. "It's the little things" and all that.
I'm not convinced either.
I like the idea, but it's not that big a deal and I don't like your
proposed implementation.
Well I think it is a big deal. I think Objective-C code bases are much easier to maintain because they have a superior syntax for calling methods. I don't like it when other languages do something as simple as calling functions better than my otherwise favorite language :P
There are so many more cases to cover and this doesn't fill them,
Like what? At least name one so we can have a discussion about it!
nor it's original one nicely.
Ok. Why? I'm not saying you're wrong, I just want to know what the reasons are so I can understand why I was mistaken so I can forget about this idea :P
