in thread Combining Import and Source-Filter to implement Syntactic Macro mechanism

Unfortunately reading the source code is more of a guessing game for me.

But I'm pretty sure that's just the way it is, the registered filter will only kick in for the next line. (Which could lead to weird bugs, if the same line statement spans multiple lines)

I was hoping to discuss it with Reini at the German Perl Workshop, but he's still missing among the attendants yet.
