Re: perl moment
@Byte yeah just for the love of all things holy use perl6
Re: perl moment
@thufie ah. What’s new about Perl 6? The last time I messed with Perl was on Windows and I think I used Strawberry Perl because I didn’t want to pay for a programming language runtime.
Re: perl moment
@Byte there is really too much to get into. But the biggest thing would be what I would consider normal and sensible scoping rules, unlike earlier versions.
Re: perl moment
@thufie maybe I should learn Perl. I understand it was the big Unix scripting language before Python became popular for that purpose.
