[01:02] <wayland> tbrowder: Not sure I understand the question.  I assume you mean a file in the bin directory, a la https://docs.raku.org/language/distributions/configuration-structure#The_bin_directory ?  Personally I would've chosen a soft link -- is there a reason for avoiding one?

[11:51] <tbrowder> wayland: thanks, i thought of that, too, but chatgpt kept mentioning reasons not to do that and my linux foo couldn't disagree. this morning i thought of an easy way using mi6: in the dist.ini file add a command to copy X to Y to run before build

[11:51] <tellable6> tbrowder, I'll pass your message to wayland

[11:56] <tbrowder>  just tried it and it works great!

[11:58] *** tonyo joined
[12:08] <tbrowder> but it does have warts during dev of the primary file so i added a simple Makefile ;-D

[14:34] <tbrowder>  i'm having probs with JSON::Fast and wondeer if i should use lizmat's JSON::Fast::Hyper instead.

[14:35] <disbot4> <antononcube> What are the problems with “JSON::Fast” ?

[14:36] *** tonyo left
[14:51] *** tonyo joined
[14:57] <tbrowder> it may be my setup, but i keep getting errors about JSON::Fast when i'm not even using it!

[14:59] <tbrowder> i am now using JSON::Fast::Hyper and have to make sure i'm using it correctly...

[15:00] <tbrowder>   i just upgraded to raku 2026.5.1 and trying again...

[15:05] <tbrowder> ok, looking good so far...

[15:21] <lizmat> JSON::Fast::Hyper just uses JSON::Fast under the hood, so don't expect too much from using ::Hyper

[15:28] *** bisectable6 left
[15:38] *** tonyo left
[15:40] <tbrowder> at least it’s quiet! the msg i was getting was  about using perl instead of raku.

[15:42] <tbrowder> for JSON::Fast

[15:43] <lizmat> yeah, I understand timo is working on a new release atm

[16:32] <tbrowder> erg, mi6 is still using JSON::Fast. lizmat: can you convince @skaji to either tend to his issues or else hand it over to someone else?

[16:38] <lizmat> the problem is Mi6 using JSON::Fast ?

[16:39] <lizmat> I think skaji__ san is responsive to urgent matters

[18:44] <xinming> What is the right way to embed data in the script?

[18:45] <xinming> I mean, appending a large txt file along with script

[18:46] <xinming> For now, I use here doc, with BEGIN phaser, but don't know if there is better way.

[18:48] <lizmat> =finish and $=finish

[18:49] <lizmat> which are oddly not documented  :-(

[18:49] <xinming> lizmat: Will later send bug report.
