I dont know that I agree with this. I suppose you may want to walk the parse tree in other circumstances, but I dont see why simple printing out the exact code that failed would be insufficient, and I think that would be reasonably doable with what we have already. Sure, it may not work on some far out there cases, but then again I wonder what the use of such an insane assertion would be. Anyway, im not knocking the idea if it comes along, but until its here im not going to spend much time in anticipation. As I said IMO, %99.99 of the things that most macro langauges do can be done as well or better by perl itself. All that a defined macro language does is provide consistancy. Which in of itself is probably a good thing (or maybe a bad thing if you read my other node), but my original point was merely that a LFSP need not have macros within it.

<Elian> And I do take a kind of perverse pleasure in having an OO assembly language...

Title:
Use:  <p> text here (a paragraph) </p>
and:  <code> code here </code>
to format your post; it's "PerlMonks-approved HTML":



  • Are you posting in the right place? Check out Where do I post X? to know for sure.
  • Posts may use any of the Perl Monks Approved HTML tags. Currently these include the following:
    <code> <a> <b> <big> <blockquote> <br /> <dd> <dl> <dt> <em> <font> <h1> <h2> <h3> <h4> <h5> <h6> <hr /> <i> <li> <nbsp> <ol> <p> <small> <strike> <strong> <sub> <sup> <table> <td> <th> <tr> <tt> <u> <ul>
  • Snippets of code should be wrapped in <code> tags not <pre> tags. In fact, <pre> tags should generally be avoided. If they must be used, extreme care should be taken to ensure that their contents do not have long lines (<70 chars), in order to prevent horizontal scrolling (and possible janitor intervention).
  • Want more info? How to link or How to display code and escape characters are good places to start.
