Hi All, wander_ over on the chat line helped me figure out a vexing problem.
I needed to replace each individual leading space in a line. Not remove all the leading white space or replace it with a single character. Each space had to be replaced with a sequence of characters and leave the spaces between character alone.$ perl6 -e 'my $x=" abc d e "; $x ~~ s:g/^^(" ")+ /{" "x$/[0].elems}/; say $x;'
abc d e My head is still spinning those guys are so smart... -T
