accepting values on the command line

[Gabor Szabo]

I was hoping to wrote a simple script that would accept a bunch of
filenames on the command line so I wrote:


#!/usr/bin/env perl6
use v6;

multi sub MAIN(@files) {
    say @files.perl;
}



$ perl6 code.pl6
Usage:
  code.pl6 <files>

$ perl6 code.pl6 abc
Usage:
  code.pl6 <files>

$ perl6 code.pl6 abc def
Usage:
  code.pl6 <files>

I got desperate, but that did not help either:
$ perl6 code.pl6 --files abc
Usage:
  code.pl6 <files>


I am rather confused by this.


$ perl6 -v
This is Rakudo version 2017.06 built on MoarVM version 2017.06
implementing Perl 6.c.
