Subject: [ruby-core:43880] [ruby-trunk - Feature #6074][Assigned] Allow alias arguments to have a comma


Issue #6074 has been updated by mame (Yusuke Endoh).

Status changed from Open to Assigned
Assignee set to nobu (Nobuyoshi Nakada)

Sorry, I didn't know alias syntax accepts symbols as arguments!
Then I agree with this proposal.

Ruby always gives me a fresh surprise for me.

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?
