Just curious - would the following dwym? if (&prefix:<-r> & &prefix:<-w> & &prefix:<-x>)($filename) { ... } > It seems to me that -e «$_» would handle most of these cases, as long as > whitespace always comes in quoted so that you always end up with one word. > That seems more general than a special option to -X ops. Wouldn't it be a good option to combine the filetest operators into one operator? It'd even be historically correct to call that test: test(:r & :w, $fn); I still like -r -w $fn much better than the binding and the ~~ things.
