Bug #79552 for Devel-REPL: [MultiLine::PPI] paste-friendliness

Mon Sep 10 10:57:19 2012 daxim [...] cpan.org - Ticket created

CC:	caldrin [...] cpan.org
Subject:	[MultiLine::PPI] paste-friendliness

Paste the following lines into the REPL (with MultiLine::PPI plug-in loaded): my $s = ' foo '; Expected result: $ my $s = ' Show quoted text

> foo > '

foo Actual result: Compile error: Can't find string terminator "'" anywhere before EOF at (eval 561) line 5. It helps to manually wrap the expression in an empty block, i.e. type {, paste, type } and submit with Enter, but the software should be smart enough to figure out by itself when this is needed and do this automatically.

You could try q{} syntax instead. Does that work better? Thanks for reporting the problem. --Chris On Mon, Sep 10, 2012 at 10:57 AM, Lars Dɪᴇᴄᴋᴏᴡ 迪拉斯 via RT <bug-Devel-REPL@rt.cpan.org> wrote: Show quoted text

No, it doesn't work at all, no matter how the string is quoted.
