Fliegendreck.
%@!?{}[]'"` and other in tokens and "" strings (Perl) is dirt of flies.
There seems to be no good translation available in dict.leo.org .
In my early days, I learned to think about languages using lots of
special char "decorations" for my clean language as
fly-dirt languages. It looks like a fly has walked over
your manuscript and left tiny spots of her shit, spoiling my script.
This shit may also read as "shift", since I don't want to use
the shift key as often when typing a program in. This stops
my productivity. it's fine if the language can provide the
decoration, automagically, if it makes sense.
But if at all, I'd like ti to colorize, not to add extra punctuation.
