+1 for tofeescript.
'Civet' certainly implies your code is being processed, but I'm not sure the connotation is desirable.
And all IMHO of course, but significant-whitespace is the worst idea ever.
- capableweb 4y ago> significant-whitespace is the worst idea ever Hear hear! I never heard a single argument for significant invisible characters that makes sense, ever. Who would want to have a program that fails because you used invisible character X instead of invisible character Y?
- lmm 4y agoA distinction between invisible character X and invisible character Y is a terrible idea. But indentation is very much visible; it's generally more significant to the reader than braces are, so it should be that significant to the computer too.

- nkozyra 4y ago> I'm not sure the connotation is desirable. You'd think not, and yet ...
- chowells 4y agoWait, what's wrong with making sure indentation and code structure are always the same? Lying indentation structure is always wrong.
- jacknews 4y agoIt's easy to auto-format according to character syntax, not so easy when the format is the syntax. Simple copy/paste is enough to break significant-whitespace, let alone space-vs-tabs, etc, etc. But again, all IMHO, I realise it has it's fans.
