No, you just didn't get the syntax right :-)

Executing this code:

my $skeleton = "bones\n";
my $new_file = "x_file";
my $handle   = open($new_file, :w);
$handle.print $skeleton;

'print' is just a method on $handle, and method call with arguments must be written as either

$handle.print(arguments here)

or

$handle.print: arguments here

(note the colon)

Rakudo's error message isn't very good though, STD gives you this error message:

Two terms in a row (method call requires colon or parens to take arguments)

Sorry for the inconvenience.

Cheers,
Moritz
