OpenEuphoria

flipping the braces is an interesting idea, but probably a nightmare for parsing and syntax syntax coloring. even if solvable by euphoria devs it could prove a nightmare for 3rd party tools.

there was talk a few months ago about using '@' with routine ID. this would mostly be used by a few of the larger library creators. though once in use, more general usage might be found.

a better use of '@' would be for unpacking sequences. Python has a similar syntax using '*' to unpack arrays. maybe '*' would work as well if there would be no conflict with present and future struct syntax.
