Yes!!!
(Except for the '<'. That's feigen-ugly. I'll say "is r?" where needed,
regardless of which is the default. I prefer default=ro, though,
because that let's the optimizer do more by default.)
I proposed the multiple arrow thing a long while back, but it didn't
work out because of precedence with comma and because of
topicalizing/binding/etc.
But that was before semicolon which can have a different precedence
from arrow. And screw the binding -- it just looks right:
for @first -> $a;
@pairs -> $b is rw, $c;
{
print "woo-hoo!\n";
}
In fact, the semicolons even make it look like local variable
declarations from K&R 'C', so my frog-brain doesn't twitch.
