in thread Alphanumeric sort

I am not seeing the -E flag on my Perl6 distro. I downloaded the latest Rakudo Star. I supposed you're getting the latest developer build?

me@mybox:/tmp/me $ perl6 -E 'say "bob"' ===SORRY!=== Unable to open filehandle from path '-E' me@mybox:/tmp/me $ perl6 -e 'say "bob"' bob me@mybox:/tmp/me $ perl6 -v This is Rakudo Perl 6, version 2011.07 built on parrot 3.6.0 0 Copyright 2008-2011, The Perl Foundation

    I am not seeing the -E flag on my Perl6 distro.

    Neither the code I posted nor anything in this thread mentioned Perl 6. Strictly Perl 5 only.

      Gotcha now. Thanks for the clarification. I am missing the modern Perl 5 versions. I am stuck with Perl 5.8.8. for the most part.

      I have been assuming that any use of say was an indication of Perl6. I now presume that was a false assumption.
