Subject: [ruby-core:42874] [ruby-trunk - Feature #6074] Allow alias arguments to have a comma


Issue #6074 has been updated by Thomas Sawyer.


Yes, I have almost exclusively used #alias_method in the past, but it's always seems rather silly to have to use the longer term. And I bet it would be an easy adjustment to support a comma.

Btw, I really dislike using the non-symbol form of alias as it sticks out under syntax highlighters like a sore thumb.

This is one my biggest pet peeves with Ruby. I am always typing:

  alias :foo, :bar

And getting a damn syntax error.

Btw, is there a reason why `alias` is a keyword and not a method?
