patrickb I'm looking at github.com/moritz/perl6-all-module...AP.pm#L531 There is a `has &colored = ...`. That's the first time I see a `has` without a twigil. What's the meaning of that? It seems to be undocumented. 13:44

oddp In crystal I can declare a hash with an additional block that's called whenever keys are missing: 22:50
`chans = Hash(String, Channel(Int32)).new { |h, k| h[k] = Channel(Int32).new }`
The default trait doesn't work like that, it seems. Is there another similar way in raku or do I have to check for key existance at each access location?
