Summary: The logic of C's subscripting syntax

@ Who else out there thinks that
@        some_array_name[more][long][names]
@ is actually a good way to do things?

    I do!  I prefer to think of multi-dimensional arrays as arrays of arrays,
which the current syntax implies, rather than as different entities.  It
should be easy enough to write a program to convert between notations, though.
