perl5 VS ucd-generate

I was not signed into GitHub. I opened the permalink and it displayed fine. I opened the raw page in another tab; it was fine.

Nothing to do with a fixing the trap, it turns out: https://github.com/Perl/perl5/commit/4197fe35a33e6471f8f532abfd06cd6c120f180e which leads to https://rt.perl.org/perl5/Ticket/Display.html?id=109408

As we mentioned last week, this week we are working on a portable, symbolic link implementation that also works on Windows. You can see our progress here. To implement this, the Perl win32/win32.c source code would be greatly appreciated.

So you're saying that the 'expect()' message when a regex compilation error occurs should be a translation from a terse domain specific language to bloviating prose? :-)

What 'expect()' message would you write for this regex? https://github.com/BurntSushi/ucd-generate/blob/6d3aae3b8005...

I think 'unwrap()' there is perfectly appropriate.

> I think it'd be desirable to have a `.unwrap_with_context("Context: {}")`, and the you'd get `Context: Inner Panic Info`.

Why?

I've also embedded Unicode tables a number of times. It's very easy to do, and I do it enough that I even have a tool to do it. Having tooling and scripts to do it is important for reasons of provenance and also for when the tables need to be updated (every year or so).

ucd-generate for generating Unicode tables. It is what the regex crate uses to generate all of its tables, and it supports many properties already. It also provides a way to represent Unicode character names in a compressed data structure.
