Or we change the concatenation operator.
$a = $b & $c; # Do people really use Perl for bit fiddling?
$a = $b # $c; /* Urgh */
$a = $b ~ $c; # Mmm!
I like that last one a lot, because it doesn't disturb anything.
You'd have to alter ~'s precedence so that binary ~ is higher
than named unary operators. (It's print($a~$b), not print $a (~b).)
