On: Functional Programming in JavaScript using LiveScript and prelude.ls

They discussed this, and decided: a) partially-applied operators fills some of the gap, and b) they're far too complicated to implement.

ah, thanks, I missed partially applied operators. But then, it seems easy to do it with single method calls too, e.g.

    map (.length) x

rather than

    map (call \length) x

does not fit more complex usage, but it's a tiny improvement I'd think

This is an interesting idea - I will look into it. It does not seem to conflict with the current syntax. Thanks for the suggestion!
