Code:
say +("\b" x 70);
Result (in my terminal):
Cannot convert stri' (indicated by ⏏)-10 number must begin with valid
digits or '.' in '⏏
in block <unit> at ./test.pl:2
As you can see, the output is broken because of \b. This behavior probably
depends on the terminal (in emacs, for example, I see ^H), but I think that
printing \b without escaping it first is a bad idea (at least in error
messages).
