no, if I understood Larry correctly, you can of course write a nice grammar-modifying module, but other modules you use() still use Perl 6's standard grammar. E.g.:
Ah, then of course I would have never expected things to be different at all.
If you wanted the compiler to parse SomeOtherModule.pm using Ruby's grammar, you'd have to write: use Grammar::Ruby; reuse SomeOtherModule
So that, after all, I don't think it would be much used since if SomeOtherModule was thought to be parsed according to Grammar::Ruby, it would take care of using it in the first place, I guess.
Unless, of course, SomeOtherModule could be parsed correctly -and hopefully behave differently- under two or more different grammars, in which case it would be funny to see the effects of, say,
use Grammar::Ruby; reuse SomeOtherModule; use Grammar::hq9plus; reuse SomeOtherModule; # ... which reminds me of good'ol' "GEB"... Michele -- Never attribute to malice that which can be adequately explained by stupidity - "Hanlon's Razor"
