syntax idea: simplifed ifs

Dear Alexander,  I'm not sure if you've read the manual on what different
operators do exactly.  || is a logical or, that is, it returns one OR the other.
| is a bitwise or, that is, it returns a value in which if a given bit is set in
the value on either side, it will be set in the return value.

|= is a bitwise or, so if you say:

x = 1;
x |= 2; // 3
x = 1 || 2; // 1
x = 0 || 2; // 2

You with me?
