[REBOL] Re: IDIOMS: setting multiple words

Hi Gregg,
Like others I tend to prefer the:
foo: copy []
bar: copy []
baz: copy []
idiom for most cases. I often find my style changes depending upon chosen
word size:
variable-number-1: none
variable-number-2: none
variable-number-3: none
for long words, and:
v1: v2: v3: none
for shorter ones. Also, I tend to use set when the values are different
and the word names short:
set [v1 v2 v3] [1 2 3]
It's very subjective, but I tend to go for the idiom that looks compact
while not taking up "too much" space on a single line. This "too much"
might be absolute (ie. no more than 40 characters) or relative to the
length of the preceeding and / or following line(s). How's that for
obscure! ;)
Regards,
Ashley
