This seems to fix every small issue and even a few large ones that I had problems with in JS! It seems like it will be super easy to integrate with my current "build tools" for the few dynamic languages I run (built into Komodo as macros and plugins).

Heck, I could probably write the build tools plugins in Komodo WITH GorillaScript. Of course, not quite the same as a brand new self-hosted compiler, but I'd like to think that it's circular-referency is adequate to be in the vein of functional programming tradition :)

I was never excited about Coffeescript. This is JavaScript: The Good Parts And Even The Best Brand New Parts
