say we ain't got a "chown" sub.
Will this be coming to a theater neat us in the future?
(I will use a system call till then.)
It's another of those things where a proper Windows solution is not
really compatible with the POSIX-flavored one (perl 5 provides a
POSIXish hack and forces you to module space for a proper one on
Windows), so Perl 6 has banished it to the ecosystem.
Of course, it'd be nice if we *had* such ecosystem, but that is no
excuse to force a POSIX flavor on the core.
Makes sense. Thank you!
I wonder why they did not "banish" (sound so harsh) chmod?
I will use a system call.
