Have you tried PerlX::Maybe as an alternative? https://v1.metacpan.org/pod/PerlX::Maybe As far as I can tell, this solves all the problems you're asking for: - Still uses left-side-quoting - Enforces scalar context on right operand ( I think ... ) - Removes both the key and value if the value if undef But is clever enough to not need new core functionality or more abuse of punctuation. -- Kent KENTNL - https://metacpan.org/author/KENTNLThread Previous | Thread Next
