result-#moarvm.md

This is a precursor to reducing the size of the inter-gen set.
This is also a precursor to inlining.

result-#p6dev.md

Found nothing!

result-#perl6-dev.md

nqp pod slang, i would like to add a new repo doc file called something like nqp/docs/adding-a-pod-slang.md and document the steps i take. the new doc i added today is a precursor to that. i won’t move farther along unless you think the idea is worthwhile.

result-#perl6.md

actually CPAN Butterfly Plan, a precursor to the Butterfly Perl 5 Project
One nice precursor to have might be code that looks at a block of Perl 5 code and properly creates inline #`(..) comments to surround it, because of how 5 and 6 use (){}[] differently. One less thing to worry about when transliterating.
Juerd: The point of doing this is to learn grammars. As this is just a precursor to a much more complex struture.
At least as a precursor to inclusion in core. So that (a) we know there's enough users to justify the addition of the op; (b) all the buggy edgecases are shaken out or at least discovered
yes. ML predates Haskell. I mentioned Lazy ML (essentially a basic ML with laziness) as a precursor already
we had that running on feather (the p6c.org precursor) for a while
and is basically the precursor of $AUTHOR and $AUTHORITY
they are kind of a documentation precursor
jnthn: refactoring it to be really iterator based will be a precursor to making it auto thread. I'd be quite tempted to try the latter, too :)
rakudo/nom: Previously it would show the cursor in a wrong (later) position and give inappropriate "expecting any of" suggestions based on that position. I'm a bit unclear on the details of this precursor thing, so please do review carefully before merging in case this is the wrong way to fix it, but what I saw seemed to suggest that precursor may be intended for these kinds of cases.
probably leaving soon but, can anyone explain what is being accomplished with $/.PRECURSOR and $*W.throw(:precursor) in src/Perl6/{Actions,World}.nqp ? I made a PR which uses it and seems to do the right thing but it makes me uneasy not knowing the full why and how of it.
vendethiel-: iirc fglock once wrote a CL backend for kp6, the precursor to perlito
CSP looks a bit like a precursor to pi calculus.
the precursor to viv was called gimme5, which is also a pun :)
awk is a cute precursor to Perl. lots of nice ideas in there.
ooh, ABSYS was a Prolog precursor...
FORTRAN even has this lovely feature, almost feels like a precursor of sigils, where variables starting with <[ I .. N ]> are integers and the rest are reals
moritz: the commit you refer to is a precursor to what ended up there.
the memetic precursor of the modern file was the stack of punched cards
3) is precursor to 1) xor 2)
at that time there was also a gimme5 precursor called 'metholate' that translated STD.pm to Pugs
mberends: I got distracted by some ideas I had for a file-backended mini-ORM, as a precursor to an early MVC for Web.pm.
post is the precursor to PIR
The postcircumfix:<[ ]> work I did over the weekend was the precursor to fixing Range.
I presume learning Perl 5 isn't a bad precursor to learning Perl 6?
yeah, it's a good precursor
maybe a PIR prelude is a precursor to a Perl 6 prelude.
TimToady, no, I am asking when the Sears WishList Catalog is coming out - the precursor to Xmas
or in this case, a recursory grep. :)
regarding an earlier discussion about caching precompiled files on a per-platform basis, a shell script precursor to ccache is here: http://www.erikyyy.de/compilercache/compilercache-1.0.10.tar.gz
but at least i understand a bit of the precursor knowledge and strict typing and so forth
