Proc-Q VS roast

I see https://github.com/raku-community-modules/Proc-Q just landed. That looks to me like the replacement that I expected to eventually arrive. I'll test and see if I can swap it in place of where I've been using Async::Command, but it looks likely at first glance.

The Raku programming language has, with some tweaks:

data.store.book.grep(.price < 10).map(.title)

Although personally I would write that as:

data.store.book.map: { .title if .price < 10 }

which combines the filter / map into a single operation.

Pakku is a package manager for the Raku Programming Language. Latest releases of Pakku are part of Pakku Celastrina version family. Celastrina name means elegant and beutiful, So I will take the opportunity to introduce how elegant IMO Pakku handles Raku distributions.

At the last European Perl Conference I proposed to change the name of "Perl 6". After a lot of discussion, it was decided that it was going to be called the Raku Programming Language.

Raku note: This language has no length method on strings, because in Unicode world it is super confusing. Instead there are separate methods to ask precisely about amount of characters, amount of code points and amount of bytes.
