The Perl Toolchain Summit needs more sponsors. If your company depends on Perl, please support this very important event.

Changes for version 1.0601 - 2014-10-20

  • allow nameless parameters for arguments that should be ignored
  • fix string comparison bug (":lvaluefoobar" treated as ":lvalue", etc)
  • explicitly disallow $_/@_/%_ as parameters
  • change "Not enough" to "Too few" in error message to match perl
  • don't parse $#foo as a sigil plus comment
  • remove implicitly optional parameters ("fun foo($x = 42, $y)" used to be equivalent to "fun foo($x = 42, $y = undef)")
