perl 6 equivalent of "use warnings"

Hi All, Is there a perl 6 equivalent of perl 5's "use warnings"? Many thanks, -T

Re: [perl #130540] [BUG] || && and or cannot be "overloaded"

There is a :<&&> which might be where some confusion comes from. I guess that's there for meta operators. For example: multi sub infix:<&&>("foo","bar") { "win" }; say "foo" && "bar" # bar say Z&& # win so it does kinda work actually just not as you might expect. LL On Thu, Jan 12, 2017 at

Simple windows code example needed

Hi All, Please forgive me being a mooch here. Would some kind person please write me a simple Windows perl 6 script so that I can see the headers? A simple write "hello" to the screen will suffice. Many thanks, -T -- ~~ Computers are like air

Re: Simple windows code example needed

say "hello world"; or on the command line: perl6 -e 'say "hello world"' There are no headers :) LL On Thu, Jan 12, 2017 at 2:28 PM ToddAndMargo wrote: Hi All, Please forgive me being a mooch here. Would some kind person please write me a simple Windows perl 6 script

Re: perl 6 equivalent of "use warnings"

Nope. Perl6 warns you without asking for it. LL On Thu, Jan 12, 2017 at 2:43 PM ToddAndMargo wrote: Hi All, Is there a perl 6 equivalent of perl 5's "use warnings"? Many thanks, -T

Re: perl 6 equivalent of "use warnings"

Instead of enabling warnings, you disable them on a case by case basis with "quietly" e.g. perl6 -e 'my $foo; quietly say "is $foo"'. Likewise, "strict" is the default. On Thu, Jan 12, 2017 at 12:12 AM, Lloyd Fournier wrote: > Nope. Perl6 warns you without asking for it.

Re: JIT?

You don't need JIT! It's an implementation detail that doesn't affect functionality. In theory it improves speed at which Perl6 code runs. In practice, it won't make a bit of difference with FTP client/server programs.

modules in windows?

Hi All, In Windows, other than writing for it and having it crash, how do I tell if I have a module installed? I want this one, among others: https://github.com/araraloren/Net-FTP If I don't have the module, how do I install it? Many thanks, -T -- ~~

JIT?

Hi All, I was looking for downloading Perl 6 for windows from http://rakudo.org/downloads/star/ rakudo-star-2016.11-x86_64 (JIT).msi rakudo-star-2016.01-x86 (no JIT).msi Supposedly JIT is "Runtime optimization of hot code paths during execution" Don't have a clue what that is. The code

Introducing Inform, was Re: zenity sub

This request actually was something I wanted a lot, but since experimenting with GTK::Simple, something seemed possible. Hence the Inform (actually Informative) module. It's in the modules ecosystem and installs with Panda. (Panda install Inform) To get a popup dialog box inside a Perl 6
