In Perl5, the meaning of the undef value is overloaded. It can mean
either the value an uninitialized variable or it may indeed mean a
genuine undefined value. Perl5 is biased toward the first meaning: in
string context, the value behaves as an empty string; In integer
and float context, it respe

There is syntax to define trait and properties

A trait setter probably does not make sense but for the
implementer because it should not be set at run time.

In the tradition of Perl concision, I would like newline to be a
statement terminator everywhere it can: that is when
a) the parser expects an operator
_and_ b) we are not in the middle of a parenthesised expression.

I expect Perl6 to be a language with a mix of dynamically typed and
statically typed variables. In a purely statically typed language like
OCAML, you generally don't need to declare the type of variables
when it can be inferred. So one can benefit from the speed of static
typing (no type info must

Giving scoping functions the status of list operators
would allow to drop parentheses when not used in conjunction
with initializer so one could write:

instead of

Hi,
I am writing a PerlPair PMC and I have a problem with an
optimization. BTW: probably a modified PerlPair could be used
to implement lisp cons pairs and the optimization will be even
more useful because of the widespread use of pairs.
The optimization: I want to avoid storing a key or or value

My understanding of the semantic of pairs as in A6:
A pair in a given scalar context should return its first element
coerced to match the said context.
This seems to be a prerequisite to use pairs as function arguments.
Example with the boolean context:
bool $b = a => 10; # $b == 1
I have confused assignement and initialisation in my previous
mail. Because they are two different operations, there is no
problem they have different semantics. A6 described both
operations. It described pairs as arguments used to initialize
parameters and pairs in assignement.

I use over and over this idiom in perl5:
$a{$_}++ for @a;
This is nice and perlish but it gets easily pretty boring
when dealing with many list/arrays and counting hashes.
I thought overloading the += operator
%a += @a;
Probably that operator should be smart enough to be fed with

You are considering read-ony PMC versus others. Another issue
is properties. Many PMCs "classes" will support properties that will
alter their behavior. But most PMC instances will have no property
attached to them. Or just default values of them if you see it that
way.

When routines declared with the @LOAD pragma are in the main

because the code of these routines could be easly moved in the
main routine but that should be either fixed or documented.

I want to make an loose analogy between pmc/their_content and
Unix inodes/files which I use as a mnemonic.
PMCs are the equivalent of inodes, each one
reference some content which is the equivalent of a file.
C, when the source and the destination pmcs are of the same type,
is like creating a har

Do you mean that array accesses will not be jitted? If an array is declared

I have started working on Perl6 regular expressions. Nothing
usable yet but I post the code to get feedback. The code is
attached to the present mail.
Currently, I use perl5 code to parse very simple regexps using

It seems obvious to me but I mention it because I can't find it
in the apocalypses.

Hi,
I don't remember anything about enums and bitenums in the
apocalypses. This is probably not very difficult to roll out
something using macros but I feel that should belong to the
standard language.

The smalltalk paper you mentionned which talked about roles (under
the name of traits) said that roles were stateless.
What are the consequences of using stateful roles?

Abstract pmcs should appear in core_pmcs.h and pmctypes.pasm
because one needs them as base pmcs so as to declare
pseudo-registers. This is a prerequisite to add pmc type checking
to imcc. Working on a patch to fix that, I got some questions to
be answered.
Unlike other pmcs, abstract pmcs have na
