I'm sorry, but neither of those is powerful enough to represent Perl
data structures. ;-)

Hey Scott. I have yet to read your "Perl 6 Now!" book (a friend will
bring it to Taiwan next month), but I've just discovered the wealth
of example code that is http://perl6now.com/1590593952-1/.
Is it possible for me to includ

New version available. Improvements are
- colour. Controlled via $TESTTESTERCOLOUR environment variable (also takes
American spelling :)
- surround the diag string with '' so that even without colour, trailing

It's been mentioned to me that some folks were surprised that the design team
hasn't been more effusive in it's support for the incredible job that Autrijus
is doing prototyping the Perl 6 interpreter over the top of Haskell.
We had thought that answering his questions about 1000 times faster an
Hello,
I just released Test::Output 0.03 to CPAN.
The following new functions have been added:

Also, the following functions have now been exported:
stdout_from()
stderr_from()

Perhaps. However, it's fairly easy to use an Array or Hash to represent
a Set, so perhaps
