Re: On Parsing Perl

[repson]

You could use B::Deparse for some of it, which eliminates some of what you don't want, but even that fails on many other things. The best bet is to code for the majority of perl and leave programmers to use their heads for the rest. This is what I do with syntax highlighting in vim, I use it generally but don't belive it for a moment. It is still sometimes helpful anyway. This is the way it will have to stay for now, at least until Perl6...
