Hi, I noticed today that Text::ParseWords doesn't check for bad input, e.g. mismatched quotes or a single unescaped quote. The second time I read the documentation I saw this statement: "...and to Jeff Friedl for telling me not to worry about error-checking (sort of-- you had to be there)." Anyone want to speculate how that conversation might have gone? If parsewords is silent about these cases it (it appears to return an empty list when given confusing input) that means the person whose code I'm reviewing has to. Worse is better?
