Re: At sign ``@'' in key

Thank you both! Problem solved.

             tab.var@addr = 1

is terser than

             tab["var@addr"] = 1

saving 3 chars and I'm a miser. That's why I liked to be able to do it.

Not for 5.1, but in 5.2 you can tell the lexer that @ is a letter by
editing lctype.c and rebuilding. Not that I recommend you to...
