I noticed the Pugs folks have started porting File::Spec and other modules to Pugs, which leads me to ask this question. I've also taken a look at Rod Adams S29.
There a quite a few p5 standard libraries with crusty old user interfaces that many folks dislike. Two that people often seem to complain about are File::Find and File::Spec. Ken Williams has proposed a cleaner alternative interface than File::Spec, namely: http://search.cpan.org/dist/Path-Class/ Two wrappers for File::Find I am aware of are: http://search.cpan.org/dist/File-Find-Rule/ http://search.cpan.org/dist/File-Finder/ Please note that I am not an expert on any of this, I was just wondering whether we are going to clean up the old p5 library interfaces as part of the move to p6. Or must we support the old p5 library interfaces for backwards compatibility? /-\ Find local movie times and trailers on Yahoo! Movies. http://au.movies.yahoo.com
