Re: perl6 --profile-compile | --profile: both very slow and depend on Internet resources

The profiler's data blob is a massive, gigantic blob of json (ls the file and you'll see). You can easily search the urls to point at local files instead of the CDN. Alternatively, there's a qt-based profiler up on tadzik's github that can read the json blob (you will have to

Re: stdout_is in Perl 6?

Hello Hiroki Horiuchi, there are two modules that should help you solve your problem: https://github.com/sergot/IO-Capture-Simple - "IO can be captured." https://github.com/zoffixznet/perl6-IO-MiddleMan - "hijack, capture, or mute writes to an IO::Handle" If IO::Capture::Simple or

Re: Need help with Nil values

Hello Emiliano, In this case, I think you may want to use just "Str" instead of "Nil". "Str" is the "type object" for Str objects, and you can check whether it's a string like "foo" or just the Str object by checking $!value.defined. There's a FAQ answer that's about "Any", but it works the

Re: perl6 can't find installed modules, installed by panda

Hello Marcel, the mangled names of all the installed things is an unfortunate side-effect of the somewhat recent switch to a more database-based installation method. Inspecting the @*INC variable ought to give you some more insight to what's going on. there's also an environment variable
