Re^5: IDE for Perl programming?

Are you sure? I'm on emacs 27.1 with cperl-mode symlinked from the latest git version, but still see

sub y_max {
    1
}
[download]

highlighted as a transliteration.

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

Maybe I need to clarify: My fixes have not been backported to Emacs 27.1. Instead, `cperl-mode.el` from the master branch (which identifies as Emacs 28.1) contains some "compatibility functions" so that it works with Emacs 26.1. If in doubt, say `C-h v cperl-version`: It should notify that the variable is obsolete since 28.1. Edited to add: This is indeed a bug, and an old one, too. I didn't "see" it because it depends on the a somewhat random order how two functions are called but can reproduce it now.	[reply]
