I like the as-> macro, mostly because it'd theoretically obviate the need to
include the Swiss Arrows library anymore.
There's one reason why I keep going back to Swiss Arrows though: the ability to
include single-arg functions in the chain that do not have the explicit token.
i.e. in Swiss Arrows, I can do:
(-<> foo
bar
(baz <> quux)
blah)
Note, it's clean and simple, no need for a bunch of noise and <>'s where not
needed, only when calling functions with arity > 1.
But with as->, I have to do:
(as-> <> foo
(bar <>)
(baz <> quux)
(blah <>))
And that just seems unnecessarily noisy to me.
Would love it if as-> allowed removing unnecessary characters, this way:
(as-> <> foo
bar
(baz <> quux)
blah)
Anyway, very minor quibble, just putting it out there.
Thanks.
