NAME

v6 - A Perl 6 implementation

SYNOPSIS

    # file: hello_world.pl
    use v6-perlito;
    "hello, World".say;
    $ perl hello_world.pl

DESCRIPTION

The "v6" module is a front-end to the "Perlito" Perl6 compiler.

Alternate backend modules can be installed. For example, the "Mildew" compiler can be used as:

  use v6-mildew;

REQUIREMENTS

- The source file header must be valid perl5 and perl6 code.

This is a valid header:

    #!/usr/bin/perl
    use v6-perlito;

* it executes perl5

* perl5 will call the "v6.pm" module.

This is an invalid header:

    #!/usr/bin/pugs
    use v6;

* it tells perl5 to execute "/usr/bin/pugs".

* it would tell perl5 that Perl v6.0.0 required.
