Re: FW: Periodic Table of the Operators
How are those without a US keyboard supposed to type this? I assume you mean with a US keyboard? US keyboards don't have ¥. You can use zip if you want ASCII. Otherwise, it depends. But Yen is Unicode codepoint U+00A5 = 165 decimal, so you can type it in Windows as ALT + numpad 0165 even without any international keyboard layout. If you use vim, then you can use control-V (control-Q on Windows) 1 6 5 (or u 0 0 a 5), or the Ye digraph (control-K Y e, or, if you have the digraph option set, Ybackspacee). -Mark

On the other hand, perhaps comma fills this role - though I couldn't find my way through the discussion on comma to know where it now stands. Actually, since comma is now an operator for list construction, I suppose ,= would certainly have a clear enough meaning. Still, I'm not sure everything needs to be operatorified.

Well, first off my US keyboard doesn't contain it. Second, you're not supposed to. ¥ is a shorthand for zip, and if you don't want to use the funky one-character operator, just use the afunked three-character one. -- Aaron Sherman [EMAIL PROTECTED] Senior Systems Engineer and Toolsmith It's the sound of a satellite saying, 'get me down!' -Shriekback

I don't think there's anything constitutional about folks who like Emacs that prevents them from liking Perl or vice-versa. Even though (e)lisp is about as orthogonal as you can get and therefore something of a philosophical opposite to Perl. :) Since you've added « and » to the list above, I'll add them as well: CodepointDecimalVim Digraph « U+00AB 171 » U+00B1 177 Details again: you can always enter chars into Windows by holding down the ALT key and typing 0 plus the decimal code point on the numeric keypad, or into Vim by hitting control-V (control-Q in vim on Windows, since control-V is Paste) followed by either the decimal code point (no leading 0) or the letter u plus the hexadecimal code point. Vim digraphs are entered via control-K plus the two characters, or by setting the 'digraph' option and then typing the two characters separated by a backspace. -Mark
Re: [Poop-group] Perl 6 Periodic Table of the Operators
So is he going to backport his representational ideography to the operators of perl 5.8?
