| Subject: | Failure to parse folded scalar syntax |
I've attached a test case that demonstrates an issue documented in the
SYNOPSIS section of the POD for YAML.pm.
The issue is related to the "folded" scalar syntax specification, described
here:
http://yaml.org/spec/1.2/spec.html#id2761032
The example given in the YAML spec is properly parsed by YAML::XS 0.37, but
the example given in the YAML.pm SYNOPSIS is not properly parsed, and it
looks to me like both are valid YAML.
It's not clear to me whether the issue is in YAML-LibYAML or in the
underlying libyaml; I've looked through the libyaml Trac, and I didn't see
an issue that was obviously the same.

You probably think YAML stands for "Yet Another Markup Language". It
ain't! YAML is really a data serialization language. But if you want
to think of it as a markup, that's OK with me. A lot of people try
to use XML as a serialization format.
"YAML" is catchy and fun to say. Try it. "YAML, YAML, YAML!!!"
