This probably goes against everything a shell based platform wants, but
would it be possible to give the program a sub-like signature?
I ask this after another painful session of forgetting how things
work, reading Getopt::Long's documentation.

I like that idea very much, but...

Rule $pattern,
bool +$help:short('h'),
Int +$verbose

Would this actually be any better than the interface provided by
Getopt::Long?
I'm not sure if it's *better*. I personally find it easier to read and
much easier to remember.
It would reduce the number of mini languages needed. Passing

The signature part, or the signature itself? Because you'll encounter
lists like this all over Perl 6 code anyway...
What do you say about that:
use Getopt::Auto;
run main;
sub main (

I refered to the way the signature is specified, not the signature

signature(...) looks like a function/sub call, while it isn't one
really.
Macros can do this to a language :)
macro signature is parsed /Perl::Signature;/ { ... }
Maybe it should be possible to create Signature objects without
creating
Hi Juerd,

Str [EMAIL PROTECTED] = -

The actual parsing still has to happen 'somewhere else', exactly
