RE: Shorthand for appending to a table (was Re: 5.2 feature list?)

["Paul Hudson" <phudson@...>]

I'm with some of the other posters.

t[] = value

does not clearly say "append value to t" to me. 

If we really need

t[#t+1] = value 

to go faster, then the parser could be changed to recognise it as a special
case? 

P.

25% can be significant in some applications. Anyway,
I'd prefer the "t[] = value" notation for brevity and
clarity.
