I like the :nocirc suggestion, but the name doesn't make much sense to me. How about :posindex?

Well, I find it better than mine, but unsatisfactory too. I just couldn't concoct anything better: I wanted something short enough to be practical and I was thinking about "no circularity", but of course it's at best imprecise and more realistically patently wrong. OTOH yours gives me an impression of "positive indices only" which is not the case either. It's a matter of disabling a feature related to negative indices instead, for which I cannot think of a short enough description. But then you'll agree that it's a minor point anyway.

Update: (just not to clutter the thread with yet another reply) yes, TGI, I like all of your suggestions. Of course they are all as far away from reality as a more thorough coverage and a better implementation of attributes and a wider adoption of them.

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.
