Subject: [ruby-core:47663] [ruby-trunk - Feature #7055] Allow `.foo=` as a synonym of `self.foo=`


Issue #7055 has been updated by alexeymuranov (Alexey Muranov).


I've thought a bit more about this, and in my opinion, using the "empty dot" to continue the previous line is a waste of notation.

Feature #7055: Allow `.foo=` as a synonym of `self.foo=`

I propose to make the use of `self` in method calls optional:

  .foo = 'bar'

instead of

  self.foo = 'bar'

This only matters of course for assignment methods, to distinguish a method call from creating or setting a local variable.
