[Coke] | github.com/Raku/doc/commit/a8c7e7166e - is that correct? The colons aren't for ratcheting? | 10:14 | |

looks like f0661bf332 added them in a refactor accidentally, ok. | 10:17 | ||

lucs | Hmm... Now, reading about backtracking in the same file, I'm not so sure those colons were spurious. | 16:23 | |
Will verify and report back. | |||
[Coke] | I checked the history and they weren't in the previous version of that file, but I only went back one revision | 16:26 | |
thanks for checking! | |||
lucs | Welp, it turns out that matches will succeed or fail irrespective of the presence of the "don't-backtrack" colon, but having it avoids what would be useless backtracking, and that is probably how it is implemented and why Daniel added the colons in the f0661bf332 commit. | 18:42 | |
So the colons do indeed express the 'token' non-backtracking aspect of <ws>, and I will revert my commit. | 18:43 | ||
Geth | doc/main: e4d7a737f5 | (Luc St-Louis)++ | doc/Language/regexes.rakudoc Revert "Fix typo" This reverts commit a8c7e7166e4c20dd3deeafa75602a092e9e14c5e. Turns out the trailing colons indicated the non-bactracking aspect of <ws>. |
19:04 | |
lucs | I was thinking of normalizing spellings to "uppercase" from "upper case" and "upper-case" (and similarly for lower- and title-). | 19:49 | |
Should I? | |||
[Coke] | Yes, please - please add it as a check to xt/word-variants.rakutest and then make the test pass. | 19:51 | |
s/it/them/ | |||
lucs | OK. | 19:52 | |
[Coke] | good catch, looks like there's a lot of them. | ||
lucs | Um, is there a style guide (for example) where I could confirm -- hopefully! :-) -- that the Oxford comma is recommended. | 20:45 | |
And if not, is it? | |||
Welp, I'm using it. | 20:56 | ||
[Coke] | would definitely take a writing-docs/STYLEGUIDE.md update to add that. | 21:03 | |
