[Jprogramming] Request for comments: multiple assignment

[Jose Mario Quintana]

0.  Will  `  be still supported (maybe I missed in the BNF description)?

1. Copula is not a word (noun, verb, adverb or conjunction) it is, I think,
a punctuation mark which makes it very inconvenient sometimes (for example,
it cannot be processed by `:6) .  However, the multiple assignment form can
be defined as a verb and it becomes, in my opinion, very useful.  This is
done in Jx via the verbs  =..  and  =::  ; you might consider to add these
extensions to the official interpreter.
