That is only because the special coding rules for Roman numerals weren't added.
It still is a wrong way to think about Nl.

Nl is not “*non-arabic numbers*” and it is not “*numbers that have a value
by themselves*”.
While both seem like correct statements, they are the wrong way to think
about the Nl category.
If either were entirely correct then there wouldn't be a need for No
(Number other).
*Nl (Number letter)* is
I would say they are numbers that have a value by themselves, but can't be
collated to other numbers to form bigger numbers, that is, they are not
digits and they don't have a positional value.

Hi Brad and Timo,
Now I understand. It is for non-Arabic numbers such
as Roman numerals.
Thank you!
-T
<:Nl> matches a Number that is letter-like
I mean obviously `Ⅿ` (ROMAN NUMERAL ONE THOUSAND) looks like a letter.
There is also <:Nd> for Number digit,
and <:No> for other Numbers
If you want to find out the general category of a character you can
call `.uniprop`.
say "1".uniprop; # Nd #
There ought to be some documentation on the unicode website or maybe the
wikipedia article has some explanation.
Other than that, here's a list of all unicode characters that match <:Nl>:
perl6 -e 'for ^0x10 { say "$_: $(chr($_)) $(uniname($_))" if chr($_)
~~ /<:Nl>/ }'

Use of Nil

Hi All,
This works:
$ p6 'my $x="2018-09-15"; $x~~s/ (<:N>+) "-" (<:N>+) "-" (<:N>+)
/$0.$1.$2/; say $x;'
2018.09.15
And this does too:
$ perl6 -e 'my Str $Date=DateTime.now.Str; $Date~~m/ (<:N>+) "-" (<:N>+)
"-" (<:N>+) "T" .* /; print "$Date\n\t$0 $1 $2\n"'

The equivalent of "use lib 'blah'" on the commandline is "-I blah", just
like "-M bloop" is the equivalent of "use 'bloop'" in code.

Hi All,
With a one liner, how to I load a module that resides in the
current directory?
$ ls PrintColors.pm6
PrintColors.pm6
$ perl6 -MPrintColors -e 'PrintRed "Hi";'
===SORRY!===
Could not find PrintColors at line 1 in:
