Hi Richard,
SortOrder($foo) is an interface to get the enum object from its index
value, i.e. the number. On the other hand, an enum also acts as a
Package, so you can use package lookup syntax. This should be added to
the docs.
Here's an example:
enum SortOrder <name simple recursive>; say SortOrder::{"name"}.perl
# outputs: SortOrder::name
I hope this helps!
