Is there an actively maintained fork of Perl 4 (or earlier) somewhere? Sounds like there should be.

- perlgeek 12y agoThere's really not much point. Perl 5 is 99% backwards compatible with Perl 4, so if you think Perl 4 was great, just use the Perl 5 compiler (but none of the new features).
- duskwuff 12y agoPerl5 even still supports some of the really ugly features of Perl4 that people generally wish would go away (like &function_calls, and nested'packages'like'this.)
