enum x,y -- will help, but I still prefer dot notation. 

Here's an older version of that demo, better than either [] or dot notation imo.

include Euraylib.ew 
 
atom width = 800, height = 450 
 
InitWindow(width,height,"Bouncing Ball") 
 
atom ball_x = width/2, 
     ball_y = height/2, 
     ball_speed_x = 5.0, 
     ball_speed_y = 4.0, 
     ball_radius = 20 
 
integer paused = 0, 
        frameCounter = 0 
 
SetTargetFPS(60) 
 
constant black = #00000000, 
         green = #FF00FF00, 
           red = #FF0000FF 
 
while not WindowShouldClose() do 
 
    if IsKeyPressed(KEY_SPACE) then 
        paused = not paused 
    end if 
     
    if paused = 0 then 
        ball_x += ball_speed_x 
        ball_y += ball_speed_y 
         
        if ball_x >= width - ball_radius 
        or ball_x <= ball_radius then 
            ball_speed_x *= -1.0 
        end if 
        if ball_y >= height - ball_radius 
        or ball_y <= ball_radius then 
            ball_speed_y *= -1.0 
        end if 
    end if 
    frameCounter += 1 
     
    BeginDrawing() 
     
    ClearBackground(black) 
     
    DrawCircleV(ball_x,ball_y,ball_radius,red) 
     
    if paused = 1  and frameCounter / 30 then 
        DrawText("PAUSED",1,20,30,green) 
    end if 
     
    DrawFPS(1,1) 
     
    EndDrawing() 
     
end while 
 
CloseWindow() 

The only thing dot notation even slightly makes sense for me is intellisense lookup, but that's a fairly weak argument:
after keying in ball_ you should get the same set of "sub-fields", and showing an intellisense for bal of balance/ball/balloney
rather than them plus all k+l+m sub-fields is something it could do with underscore notation anyway, plus (potentially and
somthing of a minor issue) all in a single intellisense lookup rather than forcing two.
