Geth rakudo/lizmat-numeric-suffix-as-value: 6df088ab09 | (Elizabeth Mattijsen)++ | src/core.c/Main.pm6
Introduce SUB-MAIN-OPTS<numeric-suffix-as-value>

This allows CLI arguments of the form -j2 to be interpreted as
  --j=2, making it more compatible with "normal" CLI argument interpreters

tbrowder lizmat: thanks, but i'm not trying to be "butt-headed" (well, mayn 17:22
*maybe a bit :-) 17:23
lizmat well, I wanted to make it concrete about what we're talking about :-)
no worries
lizmat is still not convinced... :-)
tbrowder i really do like your CLI::Help and am using on a new module 17:24
lizmat :-) 17:25
tbrowder on another subject, IO::Path. i would really to see something symmetric with method extension on basename. 17:26
something like stem, maybe. 17:27
OR a pair: IO::Path.basename.parts 17:28
that would return (stem, suffix) 17:29
lizmat doesn't something like that not already exist in the ecosystem ? 17:31
tbrowder the issue of multiple dot separators would have to be handled as a named arg
17:32 sena_kun left
tbrowder i'm not sure but i'll look... 17:32
yes, Path::Util, I'll revisit and see how that works for the doc change before i make any more hasty comments 17:36
lizmat :-) 17:37

tbrowder Path::Util uses a regex get the basename without extension so I don't think it helps on the doc example. likewise, getting the basename without extension by setting the current extension as [Coke] suggested seems like as much of a hack as any other. 19:29
*setting the current extension to ""... 19:30
in sum, i think we're missing something in core of IO::Path 19:31
in perl and C++ i used to call them stem and suffix 19:33
(i'm sure i got that terminology from somewhere other than myself, probably perl newsgroup or perl monks or brlcad.org) 19:35
19:44 pamplemousse left 19:46 pamplemousse joined 19:49 pamplemousse left 19:58 [Coke] left
lizmat tbrowder: on /foo/bar.txt, stem would be "bar" and suffix would be "txt" ? 19:58
19:59 pamplemousse joined 20:04 pamplemousse left
sena_kun lizmat, likely so 20:06
this case appears to me like a more rare one compared to all the others, so de-huffmanization at work maybe
or the opposite, huffmanized syntax is at it again 20:08
JRaspass FWIW Raku Land does the .extension("").basename dance in a good half a dozen places too, I would very much welcome a better method
tellable6 2021-01-11T02:35:00Z #raku <melezhik> .tell JRaspass I wonder how long does it take for raku.land to index a new version of a module, Sparky new version 0.30.0 is already seen on modules.raku.org ...
2021-07-08T12:56:00Z #raku-dev <tbrowder> .tell JRaspass ^^^
hey JRaspass, you have a message: gist.github.com/d752612ff86b82cd03...40f1be38e4
tbrowder lizmat: yes, for methods on basename 20:11
sena_kun an util sub to factor out .extension("").basename? 20:13
tbrowder i now have my "real" doc example looking pretty good for my take on existing methods, and it includes a pretty "hack" for the "stem". i just need to tidy the "# OUTPUT" stuff.
sena_kun: yes, something like that 20:14
sena_kun tbrowder++ 20:15
20:15 [Coke] joined
tbrowder maybe i'm the only one in the world to often the "stem" ofn 20:16
of basenames, but i
i use them for renames of children. also handy when you have dirnames with dots 20:18
20:18 pamplemousse joined
sena_kun "stem" gives off an image of "the base of the word in a linguistic sense", not the "name without extension" to me 20:18
tbrowder most of the $coding and $fun coding in my life has been text filtering and transformation 20:19
sena_kun: that's probable where the coding use comes from. dr knuth i think may have used those words. 20:21
or larry back in the day
TeX or LaTeX 20:22

First look up whether there's a lexical symbol for it, and use that if we found it.
