Re^2: updating Devel::BeginLift (or, statement vs. expression keywords)

Thanks--yeah, if I were starting from scratch I'd probably do something like Attribute::Curried for the sake of a less fragile implementation. I do like Sub::Curried's composition operators, though, so I'd keep those. (Some of them are actually my own contribution.)

I might end up taking a stab at a more flexible keyword module myself. Got any pointers, besides perlapi and the source of the existing modules?

Definitely make contact with Paul Evans (PEVANS, leonerd): he wrote most of the keyword infrastructure, and as far as I understand it would like to bring it into perl core if/when he can get it to the right combination of stability and flexibility.	[reply]

> Got any pointers, besides perlapi and the source of the existing modules? No sorry. * Combining attribute handlers and (moderate) source filters are my best bet in your caseš. They are old and stable. I'm not a big fan on building skyscrapers of code on more and more experimental modules to invent fancy syntax.
