Yep. puts was obsoleted. I'll put in these fixes. > The bad news is that when I then try to parrot it, Windows throws me an > error window saying parrot died. I don't know why. linux SIGSEGVs. The problem is expr.pasm:419 containing a string with 1024 chars in one line. This is one of the known problems of imcc/parrot. There is no official limit on lines, strings or identifier length, while internally its assumed that there is one. This is of course a bug. We have to define some reasonable limits on identifier and line length. Long strings need some syntax (here doc, continuation marker, C-like, whatever) that allow for arbitrary length. And of course the string internals needs fixing, implement snprintf or Parrot strings. Thanks for reporting > -Amir leo
