But I doubt the "<" and ">" symbol: Lua is a language that less use
symbols, we use "if ... then" but not "
local pi in const = math.pi
local fh in close = assert(io.open(fn))
local const in const, handler in close = a, b
I totally agree: Lua is nice and friendly because use less symbols than other languages.
Your proposal seems quite good. I would like to be able to write
Local pi is const = 3.14
Local handle will close = fopen()
No weird bracket angles. And the occasional reader of the code would be able to guess the meaning!
Maybe LHF and RI can give a feedback on that?
