I like var::default. There's a little bit of precedent with p(,,x) and [,,x] for omitted elements. Also, '=' is, of course, numeric equality, not assignment or initialization (but var:type:=default would be pretty ugly).
I can't quite put my finger on the problem but what I want to say is that var:type=default has "bad rhythm". (Perl has the rhythm of a marching band falling down two sets of bleachers.) ------------------------------------------------------- The SF.Net email is sponsored by EclipseCon 2004 Premiere Conference on Open Tools Development and Integration See the breadth of Eclipse activity.
