Excellent node! I have a couple of questions:
- Why do you do [@item[0..$#item]] rather than just [@item]? IIRC, the second will copy the array as well, so there's no need to take a slice.
- re: number 15 -- I've noticed that it complains about RD_AUTOACTION when you use Precompile (which is the same as the command-line?), but it seems to still append auto-actions just fine. Is this the behavior you saw?
And finally, one additional suggestion to add: Do as little as possible in your actions, particularly in the ones in lower-level rules. Building up and tearing down parse trees can be awfully slow, so it may be faster to just do the fastest thing possible during the parse, and post-process it afterwards.

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).
