I like statement modifiers, though not so much using side-effect variables
set by a postfix modifier, I'd like to see the side effect before seeing
the variable it sets. Something like

though the discussion is about not setting $/ in the caller's context
A side effect is a side effect, it's something we cannot generally predict and
must not rely upon. Besides, that effect is caused by a regex which is a
separate entity on its own.

Ah, got it, thanks.
It's mildly vexing, but the kind of side-effecty coding I described isn't a
great idea in general. I only stumbled across the phenomenon while code
golfing.
As a side note, code like this:

Use of `with` would be less cumbersome, actually. So `with $s ~~ /.../ {

gone in this case, but the code clarity

Speaking of the subject itself, I don't remember how sequences are actually
implemented in details, but most likely the regex is processed inside the
sequence iterator which owns the $/ used by the

Yes, for that code it would have to.
But that code pattern is really from Perl, and predates `with`.
$ raku -e 'say .Str with 9 ~~ /9/'

And I think that is what we should be teaching people to use, rather than

That's because it at one time was decided that smart-match would set $/ in the
caller's scope. Which is a pain for implementation and optimizations. I would

This isn't specific to the REPL:

I can only assume that the sequence has its own scope for $/, and thus isn't

constant BYTE := uint8;
constant LPDWORD := uint64;# long pointer to a DWORD
constant LPSTR= CArray[BYTE]; # long pointer to a string
constant DWORD:= uint32;
constant HANDLE = Pointer[void];

On the next few Sundays, I've got some schedule conflicts, so I've got
to skip holding the Raku Study Group when we usually would on December
4th.
Instead the next meeting will be on December 18th, and after that
we'll most likely do one on New Years Day itself, January 1st, 2023.
