- a library/module system
- many new builtins
- datetime builtins

- try/catch, generalized `?` operator, and label/break
- `foreach`
- multiple definitions of a function with different numbers of
arguments
- command-line arguments

map and transform structured data with the same ease that sed, awk, grep
and friends let you play with text.
