I am fine with leaving the string patch in this release as it is if it will be compatible with a generic approach to defining new atoms types. Can anyone speak to that?
does the patch still register the "string" keyword? (and in doing so breaks all other objects that use [string( without the string-atomtype?)
The latest version registers the "blob" keyword instead, but I think it is not necessary for it to register a name at all.
exactly! the entire keyword thing is rather a mess anyhow, and i don't think it should be mimicked anywhere. introducing a new atomtype should be enough.
