   Could you elaborate on what you mean by "auto-curried"? Is this essentially a duplicate of #24?

   @dtao no not sure what that's about. I'm talking:

   var result = Lazy(people)
     .pluck('lastName')
     .filter(function(name) { return name.startsWith('Smith'); })
     .take(5);

   becomes:

   var result = l.flow(
     l.pluck('lastName'),
     l.filter(function(name) { return name.startsWith('Smith'); }),
     l.take(5),
   )(people)

   Ah, gotcha. Yes, someone asked about something similar before... unfortunately I can't seem to find it.

   Anyway, I think something like this exists already. It is called apply():

   var result = Lazy([])
     .pluck('lastName'),
     .filter(function(name) { return name.startsWith('Smith'); }),
     .take(5)
     .apply(people);

   Granted, this interface is very odd (passing in an empty array initially—weird); and the implementation is very hacky. I'm not pleased with it at all. But it does exist.

   Probably I will consider changing how this works and introducing something more like what you've suggested in a future version.

   Those are methods. I'm looking for something like lodash/fp
