I went back and forth on this. Using / has one major disadvantage. You can’t name macros w/stdin, w/stdout, w/file, etc. It’s short for “with-“. It’s only a few characters, but it adds up. Admittedly it’s more important in arc, where brevity is a feature, not a bug. On the other hand, having a full separator for the namespace is worthwhile. One idea I toyed with is: my-func@pkg So the namespace is on the right, not the left. But I decided this is even worse, even if it does match e.g. how we ssh into things. Ultimately it’s hard to beat a global namespace with prefixing conventions.
