Perl 6 Synopsis 5

Posted by timothy on from the making-the-impossible-accessable dept.

XaXXon writes: "perl.com has Synopsis 5 for Perl 6 up. It's a brief overview of all the changes made in Larry Wall's Apocalypse 5. Lots of stuff about the new regex syntax. I must admit, however, that I'm getting tired of reading about perl 6 -- I want to start using it." We posted Larry Wall's 5th Apocalypse in May.

    I guess the Christians are going to be waving banners over the naming of this one. Are they going to sue for false advertising when they realize this isn't the Apocalypse the Bible spoke of?
