For someone looking for something to do -- the recent change to
evaluating List objects in item context means that List.perl
likely needs to change also.
In particular, currently List.perl produces square brackets in its
output; it should probably now produce either parentheses or a Capture
constructor. The spectests may need some updating as well.
Some examples:
(1,2,3).perl; # old: "[1,2,3]" new: "(1,2,3)" or "\(1,2,3)"
(1,).perl; # old: "[1]" new: "(1,)" or "\(1)"
Thanks,
Pm
