"float a" | [print]
error: Bad arguments for message 'float' to object 'messresponder'
but
"symbol 1" | [print]
print: symbol
(in fact an empty symbol: selector<symbol> message<symbol<>>, checked with Print.hs from hsext [1])
I think *both* cases should error, with a more informative error message (such as listing the offending arguments).
Also, maybe (optional) warnings for cases such as:
"float 1 2 3" (equivalent to "float 1") "float 1 a b" (equivalent to "float 1") "symbol a b c" (equivalent to "symbol a") "symbol a 1 2" (equivalent to "symbol a")
Any thoughts?
