I don't know about *your* font, but in mine the ~> and <~ versions are
at least twice as readable as the |> and <| ones.

Just out of curiosity, how did you measure that? ;-)

Well, obviously, I used the Symbol::Readability module:

	module Symbol::Readability;

	sub delta_r(Str $a, Str $a) returns Int is exported {
	    return sum [»ord«split/<null>/,$x] »-« [»ord«split/<null>/,$y]
	}

and then:

	#! /usr/bin/perl6

	use Symbol::Readability;

	print delta_r('~>','|>');



How else?
