in reply to Parse::RecDescent tutorial

the manual didn't illuminate me on this one...

My sympathy and empathy. I find the PRD docs rather dense. But I do think that you should have RTM'd a *little* more:

Gotchas:
2. Using a return in an action

But you're right - it's poor form having untested code in a tutorial. :(

    Thanks, I saw that after jethro pointed me in the right direction. Doh!

    All I can say is that the docs are definitely dense, and I had my own needlessly complicated notion of what the problem was, and I just didn't search out the right section.

      We all have our moments ;)
