I am formally opposed to this idea. I see that making underscores and hyphens to be equivalent is akin to having case-insensitive identifiers, where "Perl","PERL","perl" mean the same thing. Rather what I want is to be everything-sensitive, as AFAIK Perl 6 currently is; if something looks different, it is different. -- Darren DuncanThread Previous | Thread Next
