looks nice - but rusts #fmt macro is nothing compared to std.metastrings
and is not even library based :)
I can't believe people are still creating languages with curly-brace syntax.
And also, what's the advantage of the language? Having to type "fn"
instead of "function" or "def"? Having to type "iface" instead of
"interface"? Just look at this:
fn mk_appender(suffix: str) -> fn@(str) -> str {
let f = fn@(s: str) -> str { s + suffix };
ret f;
}
YUCK!
