kurila 1.20 released
Introducing layout based block and statements. No semicolons or braces required.
For example:
sub is ($got, $expected, ?$name, @< @mess)
my $pass
if( !defined $got || !defined $expected )
# undef only matches undef
$pass = !defined $got && !defined $expected
elsif (ref $got and ref $expected)
$pass = $got \== $expected
else
local $^EVAL_ERROR = undef
$pass = try { $got eq $expected }
unless ($pass)
unshift(@mess, "# got "._q($got)."\n",
"# expected "._q($expected)."\n")
_ok($pass, _where(), $name, < @mess)

Perl Kurila is a dialect of Perl. With Perl 5 as ancestor it has a
solid base, but without the backwards compatibility
requirement of Perl 5, it is free to evolve into new directions.
