Hmmm ... [...] multi sub chrs( Int *...@grid --> List of Char ) [...] C<chrs> takes zero or more integer grapheme ids and returns the corresponding characters as a string. [...] Is a C<List of Char> a "string" now? If the return value always C<does Str>, the return type should reflect that, no? (I assume C<List of Char> on its own does not; a dangerous practice?) OTOH, if it is not the case that this "string" necessarily C<does Str>, it seems an interesting distinction to make – one that could stand to be expounded upon? :) Eirik
