does `copy` have a recursive option?

Hi All, Looking at https://docs.perl6.org/routine/copy It does not look like there is a `recursive` option. It that correct? Any work arounds? If not, I have already written a recursive delete on an FTP server that could be easily adapted to "copy". (The sub does a directory loop, if it

Hi All, RHEL 7.2 and Fedora 25. I would like to create a window that presents the user with a dynamically generated list for him to choose from, along with a "next" and a "cancel" button. What module do I use to create this? Many thanks, -T -- Yesterday it worked.

Oh, I should have pointed out how to do what you actually meant to do: perl6 -e 'my $x = "abc123def456"; my $y = "123"; if $x.contains($y & "abc" & none("789")) { say "Yes" } else { say "No" }' Yes This uses a "none" junction, which takes part in the whole

Yeah, junctions are super useful, but not very fast. compare these two pieces of code: so "hello how are you today?".contains("hello" & "u t") for ^1_000_000 and my $target = "hello how are you today?"; so $target.contains("hello") && $target.contains("u t") for ^1_000_000 On my

Re: exit code: 141 causes Perl 6 to exit.

FWIW, 141 is SIGPIPE. (signal 13 + WIFSIGNALED flag (128)) So something's happening in your RUN script that's causing it to write to a closed pipe. I hope this helps! -Rob On Mon, 27 Mar 2017 11:51:03 +0300 Gabor Szabo wrote: > Putting > > CATCH { default { put .^name,

Re: exit code: 141 causes Perl 6 to exit.

Putting CATCH { default { put .^name, ': ', .Str } }; in the While loop helped with the restarting, but I am still not sure if this is the expected behavior or not. run.pl: while True { say "Starting"; shell("perl6 a.pl"); CATCH { default { put .^name, ': ', .Str } }; }

exit code: 141 causes Perl 6 to exit.

The lack of open filehandles seem to be fixed. The server now stays up for quite long time, but I've just seen the following on the command line: The spawned command './RUN' exited unsuccessfully (exit code: 141) in block at wrap.pl6 line 5 I'd like to understand what this exit code: 141
