Perhaps, though we would be saving just two tokens ("." and "function"
/ "statement" / ...) for each such shorthand use. Or one could save
typing effort by supporting explicit abbreviations like "k.stmt(...)"
for "kernel.statement(...)".
and make the thing even harder to read? I hope this isn't the case. I
started this thread because of readability not the length of the
files.
while we are talking about shortening things I did see one other
change to the language, currently there is kernel.syscall probes
this should be shortened to syscall because there won't be userland
syscalls we will be monitoring correct?
