Yes, arr[2`~.@#:3] does look pretty clean....
I see what you mean about _ being a legal identifier...
Perhaps arr[0 .-. 5] ?
Forget it.. I know there's no chance in hell this is gonna get added to the
language even if magically a new symbol was made on everyone's keyboards that
meant THROUGH but wasnt a - and had no other use except this specific purpose....
But I'm not angry about this, so long as walter continues working on D and doesnt
retire in Florida and throw his computer away I'm happy.
