https://docs.raku.org/programs/02-reading-docs says to use ``rakudoc``
to read the documentation of installed modules.
I don't have it installed::
$ rakudoc
-bash: rakudoc: command not found
Not a problem, that same page says to use zef::
$ $ zef install rakudoc

I googled rakudoc and that led to:
https://github.com/Raku/rakudoc
which says it's forked from:
https://github.com/noisegul/perl6-p6doc
So I tried that in m.r.o and it's listed:
https://modules.raku.org/search/?q=p6doc
So, perhaps you can zef install p6doc?
Maybe the doc you read mentioning
Gianni is basically right. rakudoc has not really been released yet into
the ecosystem, and p6doc will get you the documentation itself, which you
will have to build then. So LTA is true, and there's some work to be done.

Hi gurus,
The first example in the documentation on the start control flow does
not seem to work as promised.
Here is the code:
start { sleep 1; say "done" }
say "working";
# working, done
Both 2020.1 and the 2020.12 version under Ubuntu yield only "working".
Am I missing something?

If those are the only lines in your program, the program will have exited
before the sleep in the start has actually passed. If you change the program
to:
start { sleep 1; say "done"; exit }
say "working";
sleep;
you should also see the "done".

thanks. That helps.

What is happening is that the `start` happens on another thread.
That thread is not the main thread.
The program exits when the main thread is done.
Since the main thread doesn't have anything else to do it exits before that
`sleep` is done.
The more correct way to handle it would be to wait for
There really shouldn't be that much difference between what the
documentation says and how your version works.
The biggest thing would be new functions that you don't have yet.
(Which you could just copy the code from the sources into your program if
you need them.)
Even if rakudoc did install, i

I've worked on machines stuck with perl 5.8 when the online

Sounds to me like it's time to raise a doc issue.
Also, does anyone know if doc examples are tested?
Not just when first published, but as part of blinning?

And here it comes again, the common mess about Raku and Rakudo. :)
The point is that Rakudo doesn't come bundled with documentation about Raku
because the former just implements the latter. It's not like it is with perl
where `perl` binary and `Perl` are the same and `perl -v` is your current

They are tested for compilation, not that they generate the desired
results (though this is a wishlist item in the docs backlog)

Oh, that points to new, different, problems.
https://modules.raku.org/search/?q=p6doc links to
https://github.com/Raku/doc which does not contain a ``p6doc`` scrip
Yep, there are a couple of (known) issues here:
https://github.com/Raku/problem-solving/issues/252 which request to remove
it from the ecosystem (and I'll probably do it when I finish this email),

Can you try 'mkdir' manually beforehand to create the desired
'/usr/share/perl6/site/doc' directory, then run 'zef install p6doc' ?
Just wondering... . I note your other comments with great interest.
Best, Bill.

Well, it's what *I* expected: a ``whenever`` sets
