Re: Most useless function.

My vote goes to dump. It may have had a use at some point in the past but it's pretty damn useless today!

If it works worse than perlcc, that's pretty darned bad! I try perlcc every few years; last I checked, it would finally compile "hello, world" (it didn't the first time I tried!!!), but it still failed on the second script I tested it on. Maybe by the time Perl6 replaces perl5, perlcc will work reliably...	[reply]

So, we shouldn't use "dump", because "perlcc" supercedes it, but perlcc is a dead project? sigh :-(	[reply]
