Hello everybody, i am reading Kotlin in Action, a beautiful book and i have a little question: Currently i am working with Scala and i was wondering if there is something like import java.util.{func1, func2} in Kotlin?

ivykp: I've never seen the purpose for syntactic sugar on imports since your tooling should handle them anyway. How useful are they to you?

[thomasnield]

@Ruckus unless he is using Vim or emacs. Still agree, that is syntactic saccharin more than syntactic sugar imo. But I can see value if you like jamming in text editors instead of IDEs

@thomasnield That makes sense
