To use the same debugger commands as perl (which I assume is a goal), we'd need to make this command L. The current implementation of the debugger is case agnostic as far as command names go, and since there's already an l, there can't be an L as well. Should we pick another name, or

Octal and Hex Conversions

2005-07-23 Thread Matt Diephouse
I don't see any opcodes currently for transforming octal and hexadecimal strings to their integer equivalents. Should there be? This seems like a common language feature (at least for Parrot's target languages). And if there's no opcode, then I have to write the code in PIR. :-) Thanks. --
