Right, but on p6l we had been talking about eliminating the assumed octalness of 0123, therefore requiring us to come up with an alternate syntax, e.g. 0c0123. Because assuming octalness on leading zero is a back-@$$ed affront to humanity that leads to things like:In perl5, octel is signified by the leading zero. There is no 0c0123 notation.
0123 != '0123'
