You should not need "my" on the right side of a ->. Also, you should
be able to write $arg_for for constant subscripts.

Hi Conrad,

depends on what the intended purpose of the wiki would be. For example
there is nothing stopping anyone (including members of this list) from

Open Question:
I realise I haven't kept up with every detail since the Perl6 RFC I
submitted way back in August 2000, but boy was I surprised to find,
now that I can actually use Perl6, it isn't just an improvement to
Perl (5), it's actually a "different language" (I'm quoting Michael

Ah, perfect example Daniel. I know people say things like "Java is
better for big projects because of the strictness of it's typing". I
respond that Perl isn't intrinsically sloppy if you practice good
coding, it just doesn't straightjacket you into that all the time.
So here's Perl 6 and it has

Thanks for that Ovid. I agree that any language must stand on it's

language must get over to convince people it's worth trying in the

All error variables have been unified into $!, so it should show up there.
