Can we together compile a list of accepted abbreviations, so they can be consistently applied?
I'll begin with the most basic ones: aref array reference bool boolean const constant elem element err error fh filehandle func function href hash reference int integer kv key/value num number obj object op operator, operation r read(able) ref reference regex regular expression rw read/write str string sub subroutine w write(able) Some may be source of discussion, in which case I think it's better to pick one -perhaps against someone's preference- than to use a dozen abbreviations for the same thing. One such example is "regex", which used to be spelled by most as "regexp". (Yes, I know we're using rules now... :).)
