Wishlist: say method #225

Closed andrewsolomon closed 5 years ago

andrewsolomon commented 5 years ago

Before I put together a pull request, how would people feel if we added a "say" method (i.e append with a newline)?

I understand the desire, but that feels like sugar that really isn't "tiny".

Did you mean: Devel::Dwarn

andrewsolomon commented 5 years ago

No - Devel::Dwarn is sending the output to STDERR. All I proposed was

path('somefile.dat')->say("foo");

is equivalent to:

path('somefile')->append("foo\n");

D’oh, you said that already. I just didn’t hear it over the sound of my very strong expectation for what $path->say would mean.
