What would this mean? x = @ + (y = @+1) Would this be legal? x = 1 + (@ = @ - 1) etc...

  Both could have reasonable definitions. Also a serious concern; even in C simple expresions remained undefined for a decade e.g. foo(i, i++, i--) was implementation-defined for years. For that matter, in the 1st C implementation the combined-assignment operators were defined this way: i =+ 1; until they noticed it was ambiguious. C has a long history of ambiguity. So maybe its good that C was no more ambitious that it was.

  Why stop there? Add x = (@++? @ : @ /= 2);
