listwise - generator syntax overhaul #33

Closed hossbeast closed 9 years ago

hossbeast commented 11 years ago

The listwise-generator syntax is problematic, for the following reasons

1 - Using a string as an argument which happens to be an operator name requires angle bracket escaping. As more operators are added, this problem becomes worse.

2 - Using a string as an argument which contains spaces requires angle bracket escaping. See above.

3 - using a string as an argument which happens to be a path, i.e. includes slashes (/) requires angle bracket escaping

This is done (the documentation for the new syntax is not, yet, though)
