> Please, don't make PHP as unreadable as Perl. IMO It's two extra characters at worst and would be solved much more elegantly by removing the new keyword entirely. The new keyword is meaningful and everyone knows what's being done just by looking at it. Removing it would make the language less readable. But it's a BC so big that I don't think it can be done anyway. -- Erick
