In:
perl6 -ne 'put .chop' demo1.txt
the script prints out the value returned by the chop method, because put
acts on this value.
In:
perl6 -pe '.chop' demo1.txt
the value returned by chop is discarded and the script print $_ unaltered.

Oops my example was missing the important $*USAGE message. And it makes
sense to show the wrong named args before the wrong list args.
example.raku:
multi sub MAIN(:$these ="These", :$are="Are") { say "$these $are"; };
multi sub MAIN(*@wrong-list,:$these ="These", :$are="Are",*%wrong-named)
is
Here's something to play with (without explanation from me, busy enough
sorry!)
example.raku:
multi sub MAIN(:$these ="These", :$are="Are") { say "$these $are"; };
multi sub MAIN(*@wrong-list,:$these ="These", :$are="Are",*%wrong-named)
is hidden-from-USAGE

Hi All,
Just to prove I read the stinker:

I am trying to get the following to do

The ``.chop`` method does not mutate its ar
Hi, I was trying to write raku/perl6 version of the sed code listed in
this article:
"How to sed remove last character from each line"
https://www.cyberciti.biz/faq/sed-remove-last-character-from-each-line/
What I came up with was two one-liners. But the first one-liner using
the "-ne" flag works
I would suggest starting by reading this page in the docs :
https://docs.raku.org/language/create-cli
Covers how $*USAGE is created and the various options you have for
providing help data.
