There's a space for you to fill it in under "Which editors did you not like?" → "Other". ;-) `use Moops; class Cow :rw { has name => (default => 'Ermintrude') }; say Cow->new->name`	[reply]

Hardly "scientific" ... One little anecdote: In one census the number of Americans who said to be of German ancestry jumped from ~50 to ~60 millions, just because "German" was listed first.š I the next census "Croatian" was listed first, so Germans dropped and Croatians rose. You didn't even list "emacs", so which tool are you trying to promote? Cheers Rolf ( addicted to the Perl Programming Language) š) http://www.germanroots.com/1990.html	[reply]

While I'm naturally wary of "surveys" which do not state up front who is paying for them (or even in this case who is doing the data collection) it is a short survey and an easy chance to tick the Perl box, so reluctantly I'm in.	[reply]

I think I'm on board with the consensus thus far -- far too many questions unanswered to feel comfortable getting involved. --Chris Yes. What say about me, is true.	[reply]
