Now guess what! I managed to make the damned thing work in Pugs! Here is the slightly modified version that compiles and runs with current Pugs:
use v6;
sub my_while(Code $expr, Code $whileblock) {
while ($expr()) { $whileblock() };
}
my $i = 0;
my_while {$i < 10}, {
say "i: $i";
my $j = 0;
my_while {$j < 10}, {
say "j: $j";
$j++;
};
$i++;
};
What really surprized me was the fact that Pugs appears to do the right thing on closing closures, which I did not think should work right now. Also, do not really expect Pugs to verify whether my_while is called with actual blocks or not, because it does not work. Moreover, it is astonishingly slow. But I keep on loving it...:-)

Posts may use any of the Perl Monks Approved HTML tags. Currently these include the following:
<code> <a> <b> <big>
<blockquote> <br /> <dd>
<dl> <dt> <em> <font>
<h1> <h2> <h3> <h4>
<h5> <h6> <hr /> <i>
<li> <nbsp> <ol> <p>
<small> <strike> <strong>
<sub> <sup> <table>
<td> <th> <tr> <tt>
<u> <ul>
-
Snippets of code should be wrapped in
<code> tags not
<pre> tags. In fact, <pre>
tags should generally be avoided. If they must
be used, extreme care should be
taken to ensure that their contents do not
have long lines (<70 chars), in order to prevent
horizontal scrolling (and possible janitor
intervention).
