Day 11: Pugs 6.0.3! :-)
First I'd like to thank all the kind words in the comments of yesterday's journal. *blush*
On Day 11 of Pugs, 6.0.3 is born; it is now about halfway now until 6.2.0. Notable changes since yesterday's journal:
- Trailing comma and semicolons are now allowed
- Better handling of exponential primitives (viirya)
- &prefix: is now consistently added for user-defined subroutines
- Junctions are now proper sets, instead of lists masqueraded as sets
- New operators: "!!" and "nor"
- The "all" junction builder now collapses nested junctions under it
There are also many under-the-hood changes, to prepare for a full merge of Parser.hs from Grammar.perl6, which should be done tomorrow. It is scary how each day I'm more productive than the day before...
