in thread The Secret Features of Perl6

I find it those results extremely dissapointing. Why? Because it would seem to indicate that nowhere in the implementation of brainfuck does it give the proper name of the language, which is decidedly not BF or brainf**k.

And I find panic a perfectly good name for a class of error, though I find it interesting that in the linux kernel, Oopses are a subclass of panics (or is that the other way around... in any case, they are very close levels).

Shrug, different strokes for different folks.

    Did you bother to look at the README? BF is indentified by it's proper name. Regexp::Common's $RE{profanity} simply doesn't match it.

    I run a Win32 PPM repository for perl 5.6.x and 5.8.x -- I take requests (README).

      No, I didn't, thus the "seem to indicate". I sit, as often, corrected.
