Re: Syntax noodling

Hi Norm,

A couple of quick queries before I get onto the meaty issues.

Did you mean that to be:

<p:component name="p:load">
   <p:param name="href" />
   <p:output name="stdout" />
</p:component>

Otherwise it seems to just be an identity component?

Also, I'd prefer something like 'input' and 'output' as the default
input/output names rather than 'stdin' and 'stdout': it's a small thing,
but the latter simply look as though you need more technical know-how to
understand them, and it would be nice if we could avoid putting off
people who don't have that background.

Cheers,

Jeni
