If the code is the first argument, you can use a prototype starting with '&', like this:

sub mymap(&@) { ... }

/s

Damn, i want to use it as the second argument....

guess i'm out of luck then ?

Yeah. This one has bothered me, too. I suppose you could do something like this (untested):

sub is(&) { return $_[0] }
sub goal { ... }

# ...

goal 'foo' is { ... }

but it's not quite as nice. Option 2: write a source filter that takes

goal mygoal

and replaces it with

goal 'mygoal', sub

That might be a good way to go.

Thanks for the tip, I used Filter::Simple, and it seems to do the trick :-)
