That's a darned shame. In p5, I keep going back to code and finding
something like:
print foreach @x;
and wanting to change it to:
print foreach @x if @x > 2;
or finding this:
print $_ if /^X/;
and wanting:
print $_ if /^X/ for split /\n/;
Yes, I know this last one can be accomlished by:
print $_ while /^(X.*)/mg;
but the former always seems more obvios to me.
