Here's a message I posted to the cabal last week a couple of days after
our design meetings, in which we discussed the method lookahead issue.
This message resolves those issues as well as how adverbs are parsed.
Eventually this information will find its way into S12, when we get
around to writing

Yeah, and this'll be ever so much fun too. We need to add in select

We currently have two integer PMCs, we need another one for Python. But
before just copy&paste another file, I'd really have done that right.
So first:
1) What are the semantics of Integer and PerlInt?
- do they overflow to BigInt?
- do they through exceptions on overflow?
- or silently wrap aoun

After my discussion, I've included an annotated copy of the

So, assuming (hah!) that I correctly understood everything in the

When parrot runs it doesn't strip out the switches that it eats from
the command line. So if, for example, you invoke parrot as:

./parrot -t foo.pbc
argv[0] is -t. Not good.
