How about "proc"? Too different? I don't like fn either but function is too much. Fun and func aren't great either. I'd go with proc or fn.


fun, press tab, modern IDE fills in the remaing function characters.

Unfortunately we keep designing languages for people using notepad.

Nowadays my editor even writes full blocks at a time.


If "fun" and "func" are already "not great" (because, I presume, they're too long), then "fun[TAB]" is not the solution.

Mind you, I'm not saying that your solution doesn't work. Just that it doesn't work for the GP.


It is kind of ironic how people still get stuck discussing syntax to save keystrokes and then write a whole book on the AI chat window.


Probs too archaic?
