Hmm. Good point. You see, the longest token wins because that's

(Please bear with me - I'm going to go in random directions.)
Someone please correct me if I'm wrong, but it seems that there's only
a few things missing in P6:
1) An elegant way of creating a tuple-type (the "table", so to speak)
2) A way of providing co

I would want the set operations for tuples to be like that, but the
example code that Luke and I expressed already, with maps and greps etc,
seems to smack too much of telling Perl how to do the job.
I don't want to have to us

$str.=trans( [' ', '<','>','&'] =>
[' ',

The general kind of thing I am proposing for Perl 6 to have is a
declarative syntax for more kinds of tasks, where you can simply
specify *what* you want to happen, and you don't have to tell Perl
how to perform that task.
