| ShimmerFairy | I think I've got an idea on why /[b+?]:/ seems to ignore the ratcheting, by the way. | 04:38 | |
| m: my regex subrule { b+? }; my $test = "abbbc"; say $test ~~ $_ for (/a [b+?]: c/, /a (b+?): c/, /a [b+? | <!>]: c/, /a <&subrule>: c/, /a [<&subrule>]: c/); | |||
| camelia | ｢abbbc｣ Nil Nil Nil ｢abbbc｣ |

| ShimmerFairy | It seems that the [] grouping construct doesn't really exist as an atom all its own, unless it's used to define an alternation. So for alternating []s, the ratchet gets applied to that alternation, but for all the other []s, the ratchet disappears at some point in the process, along with the brackets they attached to. | 04:39 | |
| It reminds me of the difference between $<capture>=[stuff] and $<capture>=(stuff), but I'm not sure if the way ratchet is handled here makes the most sense. You could argue that [a b c]: ought to let you have "scoped" ratcheting changes, i.e. be a synonym for [:r a b c]. | 04:44 | ||
| I wonder if you could argue for the opposite, that [] brackets are supposed to "melt away" very quickly in every case, and that having it affect things like [ad | ade]: is the real mistake. (Again, the big issue here is that how backtracking mods work with non-quantifiers was never detailed.) | 05:22 | ||

| ShimmerFairy | Oh that's fun, Exegesis 5 explicitly talks about "frugal ratcheting" (as I've taken to calling it), and apparently back in the day /a+? : b/ was expected to enable such a thing (treating ':' as an atom on its own rather than a postfix modifier; would explain why it looks like the atoms :: and :::) | 11:40 | |
| [Coke] | ok, I will not have any time this morning, as it turns out, so I will be working on the release late afternoon Eastern. | 12:14 | |
