( [id://3333]=superdoc: print w/replies, xml ) Need Help??

Fixing 'n' to do what it always should have with map/grep/sort would be a very welcome change. As already pointed out, there is no loss of functionality. Instead of 'n' and 's' both stepping into the map/grep/sort (which is almost never what I want to do), 's' does the old behavior and 'n' does something much better.

Of course, I sent in a near-trivial patch to fix "o warn=0" and got quite bizarre responses from p5p and I've come to expect bizarre responses from p5p so if your prediction is correct it wouldn't be anything "new" from my perspective. But I still think it would be a senseless form of backward compatibility.

Perhaps I should point out that my patch for "o warn=0" restores backward compatability with "O warn=0" from before the whole debugger interface was jumbled around for some reason. It might motivate somebody to apply my two-line patch due to the occasional extreme devotion to backward compatability. But I doubt it.

Title:
Use:  <p> text here (a paragraph) </p>

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.
