If a class attribute declaration has a . or ! twigil, e.g. has @!items, do
all the ensuing references to @items in the class's methods have to include
the twigil or can the variable be written thereafter simply @items without
the twigil?
Thank you, Peter Schwenn

Just a note for the people working on S19. Large chunks of the IO
stuff will now be documented in S32-setting-library/IO.pod, so you might want
to update your references to S16 to point there.
Just for any who haven't grasped the distinction, the IO stuff is in 3

I have a quick question here. S16 claims to be about IPC, IO, and
Signals. So far, it's mostly about IO. My question is, is it intended that
IPC and/or signals be part of the core, or should they be converted to addons
like Form.pm?
Thanks,

Adding roles to classes question:
Another question for everyone - is there some way I can extend a class
in such a way that it implements another role? For example, say I have a
class Class::A that implements role Role::A, and I want it to also implement
Role::B (and I provide an implementat

And it has been in use by Microsoft in the Excel spreadsheet since
the Apple Plus which didn't have floating point hardware. But then
Excel uses the day as the unit. the second would be better.
