    Smart match, switch, say and the like were added to the language in December 2005 by Robin Houston. See the summary for a starting place to find out more. You might also have to go back a few weeks to catch all the developments. In short, no, it's not a filter.

      One question thought, anyone know why they went with "err"? Just seems like it would clash with a lot of things and off the top of my head, doesn't seem very intuitive.
