@xyzzy this is so much nicer than plain C syntax. Any hope of making parens optional, too? (Totally understand if that's a non-goal. Just advocating for the 'minimal' syntax I'm most fond of.)

@Ivan Reese Heh currently syntax is actually a non-goal 😅 I want to effectively replace cpp with python and provide syntax extensions for templates, entities, prototypes, heredocs and defer, garbage collection with any working syntax before I finalize on a better syntax. I want to aim at web developers, game developers … so I am thinking along those lines. I want to increase parens in one case so that you can write code like or(and(x,y),z) which would translate to ((x && y) || z) to improve readability.
