If I change the first argument to a float such as 3.2, it seems to round it up
to 4.

I forgot to
could use the Parrot
Compiler Toolkit to write a set of bindings to allow you to write your
client-side in any language you like, include bespoke languages, if desired. I
think this could be a very compelling feature and perhaps might pique Mozilla's
interest. More to the point, A

few small projects, but already it's impressed the heck out of me for its
behavior in both big things (branching) and small things (git diff
automatically pages).

I meant that I was tired "for that one eveni

It's still an awful, awful hack, but it's a start.

say $foo; # Str
So that's probably bad coding (reusing a variable for different types) but it's
legal. So maybe this is the correct behavior, but I expect it's going to
confuse people.

ersion of Test::Harness are you running? This looks like 2.X
version output and I'm running 3.15. There might be a bug in the newer version
which is losing that information.
My best friend from the US arrives in a few hours, though, so there's not
likely to be much follow
it to a file and attached it (teeing the spectest
rusults to a file was spectacularly disappointing. It doesn't play well with
tee).

Unless, of course, this isn't supposed to be implemented yet, but that seems
strange since it's in the basic tests.

Te
ss but TODO tests unexpectedly succeeding
tend to stand out.
That being said, skips should be in place if, say, you have a Win32
test on Linux, but skips should be rare. Here almost half the tests
are skips and I don't know why.
