habere-et-disper What does the adverb o do and is there an easy way to look this sort of thing up in the docs? 18:50
ab5tract Adverbs are specific to their respective functions 19:30
So the quickest way to find docs is to search for whatever is being fed the :o 19:31
(Operators being “funny named functions”, to paraphrase Larry Wall)
habere-et-disper I don't know what is being fed the o as I'm reading the localization file for translation. 19:35
adverb-q-o in EN.l10n 19:37
ab5tract That’s for Q 19:38

disbot2 <jubilatious1_98524> Not sure where you're getting :o from? There's an :overlap adverb available for regexes, which can be abbreviated :ov. See: docs.raku.org/syntax/%3Aoverlap 19:54
ab5tract You’re right, I just deduced from the filename mentioned. :o isn’t mentioned in the docs. :to is maybe the closest 19:57
adverb-q-* refers to Q, there’s no doubt about that from the source 20:03
lizmat : do you remember what ‘adverb-q-o’ refers to? 20:05
ab5tract thinks it might be nice to create a dictionary that maps these names to code snippet examples 20:06

ab5tract librasteve ^^
ab5tract lizmat: nice! But that still doesn’t help to understand what the o adverb is (it’s not mentioned anywhere on that page) 23:01
