Re: [RFC][DISCUSSION] Deprecate the backtick operator

Hi! > Actually, for me the only valid argument to deprecate the backtick > operator is "because it is a shady way to execute a rare and dangerous > operation". I, personally, would make that the main reason for the > deprecation proposal, and would move the other arguments to the "future > scope" section. I don't think it is "shady" - it's a well-known syntax, and while shell execution can indeed be dangerous in some scenarios, it is commonly used in cli applications, and is not that rare there. I don't see a point in deprecating it - it doesn't improve anything that I can see, only makes extra work for people that are using it. -- Stas Malyshev smalyshev@gmail.com
