Module not on modules.perl6.org #1

Open Leont opened 5 years ago

Leont commented 5 years ago

This module is not on modules.perl6.org, and hence not easily installable.

jonathanstowe commented 5 years ago

That's because I intentionally haven't released as I felt it wasn't fast enough to be usable (It was taking 20+ seconds to parse a fairly standard termcap file.) I'll have another look when I'm through with my current round of spring cleaning :-)

Leont commented 5 years ago

Yeah, I am running into the speed issue as well :-/

MasterDuke17 commented 5 years ago

Couldn't it be parsed into a data structure at module build time? Sure, module install would take a long time, but if it's not too big to be pre-compiled then any actual use should be fine.

jonathanstowe commented 5 years ago

Yes that's a sound plan :-)
