    In the following, the first line has a balance of brackets and looks syntactically correct. Would you expect the lexer to add a semicolon?
    $a = $b + $c + $d + $e;
    If not, what are the exact criteria for things on the next line to trigger or not a semicolon?

    Dave.

    As I said, I don't forget to include semicolons. See for example this video, it's 7 years old, but my habits haven't changed much since then.

    map{substr$_->[0],$_->[1]||0,1}[\*||{},3],[[]],[ref qr-1,-,-1],[{}],[sub{}^*ARGV,3]
