See Builtin functions defaulting to $_. No, it isn't part of the core documentation. HTH	[reply]

thanks. My patch with some of this information was accepted and will probably be in 5.10.1.	[reply]

I think B::Lint can tell when you use $_ implicitly. Maybe you could get the list from its source, but don't expect a light bedtime read.	[reply]
