Here's a patch that converts from the @-style directives to the :-style
through out the entire parrot source tree including documentation.
Notable files that I didn't change are:

imcc/imcc.l             # gotta leave this one alone :)

editor/imc.vim.in       # not interested in syntax hilighting
editor/pir-mode.el

I've applied it in several smaller pieces (r9447 - r9455). Some chunks did fail. I saw e.g. also [EMAIL PROTECTED] => \:main inside perl code. This needs of course no escaping anymore. I did not investigate the failing chunks further.

I have not applied the languages part. First language maintainers should have a look at the code. When we get really into deprecation phase. we can still clean it up.

A couple of files that use .pcc_sub look weird with the :-style
directives.  To wit:

.pcc_sub :main main:

Yeah, doesn't look really pretty, but PASM is for silicon based lifeforms anyway. I can also imagine to unify the .sub syntax a bit more.

Thanks for the patch,
leo
