Is there a &*ROUTINE analog for Blocks?

sortiz ToddAndMargo: My NativeHelpers::Blob module includes a blob-from-pointer sub. See: raku.land/github:salortiz/NativeHelpers::Blob 05:03
ToddAndMargo would you write out a sample so I can see what the syntax is?  I have a Pointer and I have the number of bytes.  How would I use them in your sub? 05:09
sortiz my Pointer[uint8] $P = get-a-pointer-somehow(...); my $buff = blob-from-pointer($P, 9); # Now buff is a Buf of size 9 taken from the memory pointed by $P 05:18
I'm using Pointer[uint8] for $P so it point to bytes. 05:22
sortiz Ups, the use is `… = blob-from-pointer($P :elems(9));` elems is a named argument, sorry. 05:27
In the code of some DBDIsh drivers you can see some real use-cases. For example github.com/raku-community-modules/...akumod#L76 05:31
ToddAndMargo Thank you! 05:48

tbrowder ugexe: In a situation where two different modules have the same names for a bin prog. is there any way to get zef to warn about that before installation? 15:48

I'm currently debugging Cro::Client. It seems as if a supply is not doing what it should. Is there a way to introspect a supplier/supply pair to see what subscribers there are? 20:10
Nemokosch nine: can Inline::Python be used to import object from Python, or only for function calls? 21:13
[Coke] is there a way I can tell raku to ignore any installed modules? or setup a specific install directory so I can use just certain modules? 23:16
