Code like this: #!/usr/bin/env perl6 #`{{ some comments here Gives this error message: ===SORRY!=== Error while compiling ./test.pl Couldn't find terminator }} at ./test.pl:6 ------> <BOL>⏏<EOL> expecting any of: horizontal whitespace vertical whitespace whitespace There are two problems that I can see: 1) It says something about horizontal/vertical whitespace, which is not helpful and not relevant. 2) It does not provide a meaningful line number. I expect to see the line number where this multiline comment was opened, but instead it gives me the line number of the last line of the file (which makes sense to the compiler, since that's where the error has occurred, but does not make any sense to the human).
