Actually, I'm thinking we should just go with a single method and
have it merely default to :lang<Perl>.  But .repr is rather ugly.
How 'bout .pretty instead?  If we made the language the first optional
argument you could have $x.pretty('Lisp'), $x.pretty('C#'), etc.

How long before someone writes $x.ugly('Python'), I wonder...
