:bow: @YourMother. Thanks for the kind words. Here's some cool stuff I haven't blogged about yet that you can do with Venus:

# throw exceptions easily 
Venus::Path->new('/path/to/nowhere')->throw->error({message => 'Missin
+g file'})

"Missing file"

[download]
# catch exceptions easily 
Venus::Path->new('/path/to/nowhere')->catch('open')->message

"Can't open /path/to/nowhere: No such file or directory"

[download]
# determine and call methods on each item in an array 
Venus::Array->new(['a'..'d'])->call('map', 'uppercase');

[
  'A',
  'B',
  'C',
  'D'
]

[download]
# use indirect dispatching to nest calls (in this case, on each item in an array) 
Venus::Array->new(['a'..'d'])->call('map', 'box', 'uppercase');

[
  bless({'value' => bless({'value' => 'A'}, 'Venus::String')}, 'Venus:
+:Box'),
  bless({'value' => bless({'value' => 'B'}, 'Venus::String')}, 'Venus:
+:Box'),
  bless({'value' => bless({'value' => 'C'}, 'Venus::String')}, 'Venus:
+:Box'),
  bless({'value' => bless({'value' => 'D'}, 'Venus::String')}, 'Venus:
+:Box )
]

[download]
# use MORE POWER and force return an "autoboxing" object so you can continue chaining things 
Venus::Array->new(['a'..'d'])->box('call', 'map', 'box', 'uppercase');

bless({'value' => bless({'value' => [
  bless({'value' => bless({'value' => 'A'}, 'Venus::String')}, 'Venus:
+:Box'),
  bless({'value' => bless({'value' => 'B'}, 'Venus::String')}, 'Venus:
+:Box'),
  bless({'value' => bless({'value' => 'C'}, 'Venus::String')}, 'Venus:
+:Box'),
  bless({'value' => bless({'value' => 'D'}, 'Venus::String')}, 'Venus:
+:Box )
]}, 'Venus::Array')}, 'Venus::Box'});
