I find both sides of this tempting, because I constantly write "perl my-perl6-program" and like to imagine that it would help. I'd need to have a perl6 shebang, though, which I rarely do in the things I'm running, which are tests or libraries. If I did have a shebang, it would probably be to run env, sadly, and then I start getting nervous about the idea of picking our executable based on things like secondary args in the shebang (although we already do it). Obviously, I'm just a single data point here. My gut, though, is that this will be added complexity with very little actual gain. It's also very little added complexity, though. Anybody care to convince me otherwise? -- rjbsThread Previous | Thread Next
