How could we distinguish Perl 5 and Perl 6 code? I'd suggest we add a <code6> flag and have the monastery render code marked as Perl 6 in a different font.
Personally I find such conventions easy to quickly forget with disuse because the association of font and language is arbitrary. I think this will not be of much help to occasional users or first-timers here. I see a lot of edits to add code tags and such now. I like this idea, the idea just doesn't address the problem as I was envisioning it. Something like halley's suggestion puts the issue explicitly in front of every seeker. Perhaps to the left of the Title entry widget something like a required selection widget: This post relates to: Perl5 Perl6 Both N/A Don't Know Whether the monastery would want to make someone who selects Dunno jump through more hoops before seeking wisdom is a tough question for me. I find such stealth dialogs unfriendly.
