I don't see the point of your proposed syntactic change, and I just can't imagine it gaining traction. In my view, there are more pressing and important issues than trying to cater to the needs of people that are scared by (f x) as opposed to f(x). Since programming languages are artificial constructs, a programmer's sense of what is aesthetic usually seems dominated by the languages and tools with which they are familiar. I understand the desire to make clojure into what they already know, but I suspect those people would find greater benefit in approaching something new with open eyes and trying to understand it on its own terms.
However, if it has such great value for you, you can always write your own reader which behaves as you like. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Clojure" group.
