There is a general inconsistency about file permissions throughout the
parrot tree.
Of the 80+ *.pl scripts, only 8 are 0755 - and Configure.pl isn't one of
them. Some tests are, some aren't; and even some docs are. A list
follows.
Personally, I don't care what mode you make them, although (unl

Due to overwhelming public demand (Mike and Steve), I have
completed the exercise of merging my pirate parrot with the latest
CVS version, and added a few additional features:

The memory pool used by strings and buffers is now managed on

I would like to take a shot at making perl6 front- and backend
adapters for languages/regex, but so far I have seen all the tests in
languages/perl6 pass exactly once (and I updated again immediately
after, and a bunch of them broke again.) So I'm a little nervous about
digging into it just yet.

Let me ask a somewhat obvious question here.
Why is deterministic destruction needed?
The most often-used example is that of objects with external resources
like filehandles or network sockets. Let me take that argument for the
duration of this email, but please feel free to bring up other reaso

Yes, if the destruction of the resource is itself important to the
program. For example, one way to do exception-safe locks in C++ is to

What sort of dwimmery do you desire?
It's my understanding that variable declara
I just wrote this code in Perl5:
$stuff = (defined($1)?$1:$2) if /^\s*(?:"(.*?)"|(\S+))/;
This is a common practice for me when I parse configuration and data
files whose formats I define. It's nice to be able to quote fields that
have spaces, and this is an easy way to parse the result.
