OK, that's good feedback. What's the SpiderMonkey syntax? It would be better to go with something that is already in use, even if I expect the proposal here is a little more elaborate. The funny thing is that I went to some trouble in my previous writeup to disallow line terminators without drawing the obvious conclusion that I could switch to // style comments... Yay, time for more coffee. --lars _______________________________________________ Es4-discuss mailing list Es4-discuss@mozilla.org https://mail.mozilla.org/listinfo/es4-discuss
