Larry,
You can always write a macro that does that.

That won't work on a method name anyway unless you do it in the
dispatch class.

You'll have to write your own macro if you want to do that.
As I understood, you wrote down, how I can workaround it with macros,
and why it
: alias newlines, newline;
Isn't it possible to add a Role to the relevant Class, which specifies
that is 'handles' the method name you want as an alias?

Not really, except insofar as we've talked about compact classes of
native types working like C structs. There are lots of nitty things
we can fix with pack/unpack, but the basic underlying problem is
that pack/unpack are defined operationally rather than declaratively.

If it's possible, it would be fine for me in this particular case. Is it
possible?
Anyway, IMHO this alias

Hi,
as Larry mentioned in another thread that he wants a different notation
for word
splitting (http://www.nntp.perl.org/group/perl.perl6.language/21874),
how about that, similar to Haskell's words function:
# Str::words should return a list of words, without whitespace.
my $str = hi

Following the logic that .words returns the words, the words are no

sorry, I don't quite get that.

So maybe we should allow words() (or however we'll end up calling it) to
take an optional parameter specifying what's considered a wordchar,
with a default of rx/\w+/:
Then isn't making \w+ the default for match much easier?

Well,
Based on an off-list discussion, it turns out that unary C=
is not slurpy as mentioned in S04. The following patch to S04
corrects this; I've already applied the patch but thought I'd
pass it by p6l for review/comments/reactions.

Y'all are getting hung up on the correspondence of words with word
characters, but you're ignoring the fact that most of the time people
want to do awk's version of splitting, matching \S+ words rather than \w+
words (*neither* of which actually matches what people usually mean
by words, in any
18 matches
