You know, separate streams in a for loop are not going to be that common in practic, so maybe we should look around a little harder for a supercomma that isn't a semicolon. Now *that* would be a big step in reducing ambiguity...
Or more than one type of supercomma, e.g:
for @x ¡̣ @y ¡̣ @z -> $x ¡̣ $y ¡̣ $z { ... } to mean: for @x ; @y ; @z -> $x ; $y ; $z { ... } - vs - for @x ¡× @y ¡× @z -> $x ¡× $y ¡× $z { ... } to mean: for @x -> $x { for @y -> $y { for @z -> $z { ... } } } ;-) MikeL
