So much for alt+tab when space key is pressed instead of the alt key
-> googlemail sends the mail -.-

anyway, what I intended to write was this example:
> t = {{}}
> in t[1] do x,y,z = 1,2,3 end
> print(t[1].x,t[1].y,t[1].z)
1       2       3

formerly, this was much more complicated (assigning to a (short) local
variable and then writing something like v.x,v.y,v.z = 1,2,3 - I find
this new in syntax much more convenient. I hardly used multiple
assignments for class initializers for example, just because it was
too ugly.
