  Personally what I'd like to see (but it's probably not practical or sane to anyone else), is -> being highlighted in a different color than the methods themselves, and then something like the third option. This would also make it...

• Posted Trials and troubles with changing @INC to Ryan Voots

  With the upcoming 5.26 release series of Perl, there's a breaking change that's part of the release. The current directory, '.', is being removed from @INC. It's a good thing, it deals with a bunch of potential security problems and has been discussed more thoroughly elsewhere

  Maybe there should be a module to help testing w/o "." on older perls? Something along the lines of

  noinc.pm
  -----------
  package noinc;
  @INC = grep { $_ ne '.' } @INC;
  1;
  

  And then
  

  PERL5OPT=-Mnoinc make test

  You can use lib.pm for that:

  no lib '.';

  or PERL5OPT=-M-lib=.

  Wow! So cool, never would have thought of it.

  Of the 3 examples, I prefer the second option without method highlighting - the absence of highlighting becomes a highlight in itself.
  I also like Ryan Voots suggestion.

  Hey, Ryan. How's it going?

  Just tried to look at my failures, but I hit two problems:
  * The author page says I have two failing modules, but the module page only lists one with my name on it.
  * The link to the failure log gives me a 404.

  Thx for all your hard work!
