Hi,
An avid user of ($a, $b)[1] myself, which winks at TransactSQL ISNULL($a, $b)
and MySQL IFNULL($a, $b), I do have to remind myself that $a has to be a
single item for the if/else shortcut to work.
So, in
let $a := ('one','two','three')
let $b := ('none')
return ($a, $b)[1] will return just the first item in the sequence, 'one',
and not 'one','two','three', which might be what you want to achieve in this
quasi shorthanded if/else construction.
I wonder how that reads with (ex) DSSSL or elisp users? Odd I would imagine.
