I think there is a problem with too much overloaded syntax. Perhaps it is time to put non-ASCII characters to good use?
For instance, function composition could use the degree sign: ° and leave the . for module qualification.
why not the actual functional composition operator: · or ∘
we could also make good use of ∀ ∃ ⇒ ← ∧ ∨ and all the other fun mathematical operators.
This is very readable, but not very writable. Until I get a keyboard with a ∀ key, I would prefer to restrict the syntax to ASCII/whatever and simply make it the editor's responsibility to display source code using special characters. フランクより
