I'd like to propose a new lexer/parser function: SV *lex_scan_ident() I have copypasted it into my Future/AsyncAwait.xs from various inspirations of MAUKE, and it has proven quite stable and useful across a few modules now, so I think it about time we moved it to core. https://metacpan.org/source/PEVANS/Future-AsyncAwait-0.29/lib/Future/AsyncAwait.xs#L1892 If nobody objects by this time next week I'll have a go at sending a patch. -- Paul "LeoNerd" Evans leonerd@leonerd.org.uk | https://metacpan.org/author/PEVANS http://www.leonerd.org.uk/ | https://www.tindie.com/stores/leonerd/Thread Next
