Whilst attempting to implement DBCS encoding, I have discovered that
skip_backward cannot be implemented for this encoding style, due to the
mixture of 1-byte and 2-byte characters.
Some of the available options:
1) Throw an exception if somebody tries to skip_backward in a DBCS
string

Just wondering, is keys() optimized for void context? Perlfunc only states:

If it is _not_ optimized

Hello.
I have several questions about parrot dosc.
I have noticed that docs\parrot_assembly.pod is old version of
\docs\pdds\pdd06_pasm.pod file.
Will these files be distinguished in the future?
Catalog docs\ops is empty in 0.0.13 version.
Is it bug?
Nick.

Well, we used to generate a .pod file for each .ops file, at build time,

I've been playing with an "uncommitted" op version of invoke
that takes a method or sub by name like below:
invoke "foo", 0
The 0 is irrelevant to the eye, but it is a placeholder for the self-modifying
instruction. Upon call, invoke by name does:

Are you sure you're using the Perl 6 hash syntax? (%ENV{FOO} rather than Perl
5-style $ENV{FOO})
