Re: perl -MO status

Is this right?

% P -MO=Showlex,retval -e 'sub retval { my $self = shift; my $n = sub { my $arg = shift;  return $self->{$arg} } } '
Pad of lexical names for &retval has 5 entries
0: SPECIAL #1 &PL_sv_undef
1: PVNV (0x8193810) "$self"
2: SPECIAL #1 &PL_sv_undef
3: PVNV (0x81938a0) "$n"
4: PVNV (0x81938ac) "&"

What's all that well, stuff?  And what's the thing whose name is
"&" all about?  You run with Xref and it doesn't show up.

% P -MO=Xref  -e 'sub retval { my $self = shift; my $n = sub { my $arg = shift;  return $self->{$arg} } } '

That was from this guy that you saw before:

% cat /tmp/testit 
sub start {
   my($self, $tag, $attr, $attrseq, $orig) = @_;
   if ($tag eq 'a' && exists $attr->{href}) {
       if ($attr->{href} =~ s/\Q$from/$to/g) {
           # must reconstruct the start tag based on $tag and $attr.
           # wish we instead were told the extent of the 'href' value
           # in $orig.
           my $tmp = "<$tag";
           for (@$attrseq) {
               my $encoded = encode_entities($attr->{$_});
               $tmp .= qq( $_="$encoded ");
           }
           $tmp .= ">";
           $self->output($tmp);
           return;
       }
   }
   $self->output($orig);
}
