Ken Fox lamented:
This is like playing poker with God.Or the circumfix <<...>> operator. Which is the problem here.
I hear God prefers dice.
What does the circumfix <<...>> operator do?
It's the ASCII synonym for the «...» operator, which is a synonym for the qw/.../ operator.
Here docs are re-syntaxed and the << introducer was stolen
for the <<...>> operator?
Nope. Heredocs still start with <<.
Anyways, I was wondering about the general principle of using C++ style hacks to make yacc happy. I should have known better coming from the author of "C++ Resyntaxed". Did the immodest proposal fix < <> > syntax? ;)
But of course! In SPECS, type parameters live in unambiguously nestable (and yacc parsable) <[...]> delimiters. Damian
