Perl has a rather infamous example where the comment syntax may depend on run-time properties - would that count? whatever / 25 ; # / ; die "this dies!"; Depending on the definition of 'whatever', the # might introduce a comment - or it might not. Anyway, I think very few languages allow definition of new symbolic operators, so it's hard to make a useful comparison. -k -- If I haven't seen further, it is by standing in the footprints of giants _______________________________________________ Haskell-Cafe mailing list Haskell-Cafe@haskell.org http://www.haskell.org/mailman/listinfo/haskell-cafe
