Macro @aes giving struct error in version 0.6.6

[cnrrobertson]

Recently updated Tidier where TidierPlots was updated from 0.5.5 to 0.6.6 and @aes is no longer working. Here's a simple example:

 ggplot(penguins) +
             @aes(x=species, y=bill_depth_mm) +
             geom_point()

with error:

ERROR: type Aesthetics has no field aes

Did you mean to have @aes outside of the call to ggplot or geom_point? Both of the following work for me on v0.6.6

ggplot(penguins) + 
    geom_point(@aes(x=species, y=bill_depth_mm))

ggplot(penguins, @aes(x=species, y=bill_depth_mm)) + 
    geom_point()

aes() outside of ggplot is valid in R's ggplot2, so we should look at supporting it in TidierPlots. I've noticed that this style is becoming popular, and it's essentially equivalent to writing ggplot(aes(...)) but is a bit cleaner.

This should be easy to add support for, I just didn't know people used this syntax

This works again in the dev version!

ggplot(penguins) +
    aes(x=:species, y=:bill_depth_mm, color=:species) +
    geom_boxplot()
