Re: Does =$*ARGS work?
on 4/11/2007 10:29 AM brian d foy said the following: The $*ARGS variable shows up in this file, which looks like it's still maintained: http://svn.pugscode.org/pugs/docs/AES/S28draft.pod That's a typo (mine). It should be @*ARGS and refers to simple access to the command line arguments. (Fixed.) dvergin

As an eager reader of these articles, I would find such hooks quite helpful. How about a standard section near the end of each article: Going Deeper: For info on a trick with (@x, *) to extend a list, see... To learn how to use @@() for multidimensional context, see...

Whither "use English"?
I'm working on docs/S28draft.pod in the pugs project. And consulting perl5's perlvar.pod, the issue of "use English" comes up. AFAICT from various sources, little has been said about this NOTE: http://groups-beta.google.com/group/perl.perl6.language/msg/fa241233bcfba024: "we've already been through the whole C thing and how no one uses it" What's the word. Will there be something like "use English"? Regards to all, David
