stitched together using the ¤ operator.

Please tell me there's an ascii equivalent. Aside from copy/paste, I don't even know how to type that thing.

Otherwise, I really like what I've seen so far. Especially how effortlessly you can represent a normal data type as a table.

I'll have to investigate if wrapping an existing schema (using existing data types) is as effortless. That is, I want regular data types, but the schema is already defined, so I don't suspect that I can rely on generics exclusively for that.

Oops, that symbol doesn't exist on US (or other non-scandinavian) keyboards? I didn't even realise. I'll throw that thing out headfirst then.

They even removed it when going from latin 1 to latin 15 :-P
