Was thinking over Paul Graham's Arc
proposal.
I get weird feeling from it.. some of the ideas are
obviously right and cute; OTOH the language feels to alien
to Lisp. Single-dispatch single-inheritance object system
also looks awkward.
Then, if Arc is a scripting language, where all the regexps?
Why just don't use the special treatment of combinations
again, so that
("foo bar baz" ".*ba")
will result in "foo ba"?
