No kidding!? I figured it would be a feature in Perl6, but I didn't know it was already out. We're on 5.8.5 at our site and when I asked for an upgrade the guy who's in charge of the sitewide perl installs said he'd prefer to wait for 5.9 to become stable. He says there is not much of a payoff to move to a higher 5.8.x release.
This was last month...5.9 (with named captcha) isn't stable by any chance, is it?
I like computer programming because it's like Legos for the mind.

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).

or How to display code and escape characters
are good places to start.
