I'm trying to write a small program in Perl 6, to generate an
executable framework from a heredoc. (There are other ways of
achieving the same effect, but it's an exercise.)
Problem #1. Trying to specify the heredoc in exactly the manner
specified by the synopsis does not work.
The code, (cut-and-pasted from the sysnopsis), and error message are
illustrated below:
$ cat colon
#! /home/guru/bin/perl6
my $amount = "\$100";
my $curtain = 3;
print qq:to/END/;
Give $amount to the man behind curtain number $curtain.
END
$ ./colon
===SORRY!===
Colons may not be used to delimit quoting constructs at line 6, near
":to/END/;\n"
Problem #2. Setting the permissions on the new file.
Chmod or an equivalent, (e.g. system) doesn't appear to be in the
synopses or the language. Is there somewhere else I should be looking?
