Couldn't we go the python way and assume that <..> is implicit in
"for" statments:
$fh = open(..);
for $fh { # instead of for <$fh>
print $_;
}
For explicit iteration, we could well do just with a ".next" method:
while ($line = $fh.next) {
print $line;
}
And the old perl construct:
while (<>) {
print $_
};
Could be replaced with a open() without arguments, such as:
for open() {
print $_;
}
And then <..> could go back to being a gentler replacement of qw<..>.
Or is there any problem that my blind eyes can't see?
