I quite agree. I hate random punctuation. Suppose hypothetically that cocall is just one of a class of execution modifiers that we might ultimately want to add. In that case maybe there's a syntax (analogous to adding decorator syntax) that doesn't require new keywords. There's yield, yield from and cocall. Are there more? (I don't know. I'm just wondering.) --- Bruce (via android)
