Re: My favourite new Perl feature (in 2022) ...

I use Strawberry, which has missed all the updates from 2021-2022 so far. But signatures, multiple-iterators, and try/catch would be the first three of those features I'd likely adopt once someone can coax a new release out of Strawberry.

Hmm, well, me too, I'd think it looks like it's all there, and theoretically, since Strawberry comes with `gcc` and `gmake`, it should be possible to bootstrap 5.36 from an existing 5.32 - however, it is unclear to me, where to start - probably at mingw-builds?	[reply] [d/l] [select]

Hello soonix, I suppose you can follow Using MinGW to build perl on windows forcing it to expand * into glob in cmd.exe without the frankesteinian part :) L* There are no rules, there are no thumbs.. Reinvent the wheel, then learn The Wheel; may be one day you reinvent one of THE WHEELS.	[reply] [d/l]
