"No such method ˆname"

[Pytheas01]

I am getting the following error message when I run the below use-butterfly.p6 script on Macosx 10.14.6.

No such method 'ˆname' for invocant of type 'Butterfly' in method who-am-i at /Users/phi/Desktop/p6/Butterfly.pm6 (Butterfly) line 1 in block at use-butterfly.p6 line 4

use-butterfly.p6:

use Butterfly; 
my $b = Butterfly.new; 
$b.who-am-i;

Butterfly.pm6:

unit class Butterfly; 
method who-am-i { put  self.ˆname };

Here's the perl6 version I'm using:

This is Rakudo version 2020.01 built on MoarVM version 2020.01.1 implementing Perl 6.d.

I am running the use-butterfly.p6 script as follows:

perl6 -I . use-butterfly.p6

Hi, Here's some additional information. In VS Code 1.4.1 for Macosx, whenever you type a caret (circumflex accent) using the US International PC keyboard, you get a small ^. You then have to press the spacebar to get a regular-sized ^. The above issue may be due to the fact that I "forgot" to press the spacebar after typing the caret. I have had the same issue before when typing a tilde in VS Code preceding a C++ destructor: CLand didn't recognize the character.
