If I understand that correctly, "die" needs to be documented as always
outputting the line number, and that for user-oriented messages, one
of the other techniques should be used.
Otherwise, this question is likely to come up a lot.

And the "exit" should be redundant in that case.

But this:
perl6 -e 'shell("vim sample"); exit'
behaves acceptably.

fork/exec is a Unix-specific idiom.
shell throws (well, produces a Failure that is thrown when sunk), so you
don't need the exit.

Is Windows really that brain-dead? Pity it has to sabotage everyone else.
This invokes vim successfully, but leaves an ugly error message around:
perl6 -e 'exit shell("vim sample")'
No such method 'Int' for invocant of type 'Proc'
in block at -e line 1

It's not basic: Windows doesn't have it at all, it has to be simulated. The
intent is that system dependent things like that should be external to the

Thanks for the reply. That didn't show up with any search string I
could contrive.
It's disappointing to lose a basic ability like handing over control
to another program.

Why the change in die handling between Perl 5 and 6? Suppressing line
numbers with newline was very handy. Alternatively, adding some sort of
directive would be more straight-forward (at least for Perl 5 users moving
to Perl 6).

In Perl 5, a program can hand over control to another with exec:
https://perldoc.perl.org/functions/exec.html
e.g perl -e 'exec vim' opens up vim
What's the Perl 6 equivalent?
note “message”; exit

This is Rakudo Star version 2018.06 built on MoarVM version 2018.06
implementing Perl 6.c.
In Perl 5:
die "Message"; outputs Message, followed by the program line number.
die "Message\n" outputs Message
without further ado.
Perl 6 "die" produces line numbers regardless of the line
Perhaps it’s better to make this a zef issue on Github?
