"each" is like "map", but iterates over the range eagerly, and returns void.

ECMAScript 5.1 also has this for arrays:

What's the difference between this and using foreach, though?

You can put it at the end of UFCS chains. See e.g. the example included with the pull.

It is essentially a small bit of sugar, but seeing how it's present in other languages, I think it makes sense to add.

Oh, and foreach doesn't have "auto ref", does it? It's one reason to use fun(r.front) + popFront instead of foreach.
