Re: [Bro-Dev] set and vector operators

Hmmm thinking about it, we can get away with '&' with minimal keyword conflict because there's such an easy (and natural-to-presume) fix - namely, rather than "x" you use "x & attrkeyword". Now there's no problem, since the lexer only recognizes "" as a unit, with no whitespace allowed. Given

[Bro-Dev] set and vector operators

I'm working on some scripts that use sets and vectors, sometimes together, and am finding it clunky that Bro doesn't offer much in the way of operators for this. To that end, I'm thinking of implementing some along the following lines, where values starting with 's' are sets, 'v' are vectors, and
