Dear givers of the wonderful pytables,

I was excited to see your announcement of 2.0 alpha and intend to give it
some serious testing soon.
However, for now I would like to raise an issue I have with the API
proposal.
For combined in-kernel searches .where('x<5 & x>3'), I don't think & is a
good choice.
The Pythonic way would be 'and', and I think that's least ambiguous and I
hope nobody names their variables 'and' or 'or.
Maybe && would be OK, since that's used in other languages.
Also, is something like '3<x<4' going to be supported as well ?

This is just a minor point, but I thought I bring it up early, since you
mentioned the API is not set in stone, yet.

Cheers,
   Jan
