Re: Multiple assignment structure (suggestion)

hehe, yep, maybe I should've explained it better!

Well, the point about this, is exactly about that!
Nowadays, for example, the css shrinkers do things like this:

THIS:
selector-1,
selector-2 {
    border-color: #0b0b0b;
    color: #0b0b0b;
    padding: 10px;
    margin: 10px;
    border-top: 10px;
    left: 100px;
    top: 100px;
}

BECOMES THIS:
selector-1,selector-2 {border-color: #0b0b0b;color: #0b0b0b;padding:
10px;margin: 10px;border-top: 10px;left: 100px;top: 100px;}

What I suggest, is that it could become this
selector-1,selector-2{border-color,color:#0b0b0b;padding,margin,border-top:10px;left,top:
100px;}

I am suggesting a new way for these tools to compress the css, for us :)

cheers.
