in reply to Question about ellipsis statement '...'

Good spot!

I think the ellipsis "keyword" can be best explained as being equivalent to

die "Unimplemented";

Edit: And the documentation says at the end of the first paragraph:

Perl throws an exception with the text Unimplemented

    For me was unclear what does mean "throws an exception". Kinda vegetable I am unfamiliar with.

      Refer to perl's glossary (perlglossary) for 'exception' and 'exception handling'.
