That isn't overloading put - that's introducing query expressions...
Which would (at least as far as filter currently goes - I have another as yet
unstated reason for suggesting a revised syntax beyond stopping my own mental
torture!) eliminate the need for filter into.
e.g
the lines of X where Y
Could be something which would work anywhere an expression does.
As a long-term goal, I muchly like this.
However, small steps - the current filter code is tied to the filter command -
so additions is easier to do there first as @Monte has demonstrated.
No worries. Syntax aside, I tend to use the filter command quite a bit,
as the implementation in the engine is blazingly fast.
