LatexCmds.int should be LatexCmds['int'] in Symbols.js about mathquill HOT 4 CLOSED

Huh? 'int' is not a JavaScript reserved word, and uglifyjs, at least, has
never complained

Hmmm... the closure compiler and yui library complain for me.

It appears that int isn't a reserved word anymore, but some older browsers treat it that way. Those tools must treat it as one just to be safe.

I guess it doesn't really matter what you do with it then.

Older browsers like Firefox 2 or like Netscape Navigator 4? We should
degrade gracefully for the former, we don't need to care about the latter do
we?

I haven't seen which browsers actually do treat it that way, but I thing it would be fine to leave it as is. When the Closure Compiler complained I figured that int must be reserved for future use. I hadn't actually looked it up.
