<tbrowder> continuing my problems with p6 pod: I have scrubbed a bad pod file down to I think a minimum, and used the suggested method to test it <masak> tbrowder: sounds like great news. do you have a gist for us? <tbrowder> I'll put it in a gist shortly, but besides the bad pod, the worst part is perl6's response to it leaves no cluse as to what the problem is <tbrowder> for example, executing 'perl6 bad.pod' yields exactly "===SORRY!=== Cannot iterate object with P6opaque representation" <masak> tbrowder: yes, that's an unacceptable error message. I agree. <tbrowder> the gist with the short good and bad Perl 6 pod examples is here: https://gist.github.com/tbrowder/23c5ef38cccab30a32a7f7a2ca61659d <masak> nice. short. <masak> problem reproduced. * masak submits rakudobug For completeness, gist reproduced below: ## bad-pod-example.pod =begin pod # notice leading hyphen '-' in column 1 text =table -col-1 col-2 =end pod say $=pod.perl ## good-pod-example.pod =begin pod # notice leading hyphen '-' in column 1 text has been escaped =table \-col-1 col-2 =end pod say $=pod.perl
