If you actually want to pack Unicode codepoints, use the C<"U"> format
instead.
-=item chmod() mode argument is missing initial 0
-
-(W chmod) A novice will sometimes say
-
- chmod 777, $filename
-
-not realizing that 777 will be interpreted as a decimal number,
-equivalent to 01411. Octal constants are introduced with a leading 0 in
-Perl, as in C.
-
=item close() on unopened filehandle %s
(W unopened) You tried to close a filehandle that was never opened.
traditional to end such a file with a "1;", though any true value would
do. See L<perlfunc/require>.
+=item (Did you mean 0%d instead?)
+
+(W octmode) The mode argument to chmod, mkdir, and umask is usually
+given in octal (octal constants start with a 0, as in C). Did you really
+mean to use a non-octal number?
+
=item (Did you mean &%s instead?)
(W) You probably referred to an imported subroutine &FOO as $FOO or some
not recognized. Say C<kill -l> in your shell to see the valid signal
names on your system.
+=item Non-octal literal mode (%d) specified
+
+(W octmode) The mode argument to chmod, mkdir, and umask is usually
+given in octal (octal constants start with a 0, as in C). Did you really
+mean to use a non-octal number?
+
=item Not a CODE reference
(F) Perl was trying to evaluate a reference to a code value (that is, a
%NAME or C<%{EXPR}>. No implicit dereferencing is allowed--use the
{EXPR} forms as an explicit dereference. See L<perlref>.
-=item umask: argument is missing initial 0
-
-(W umask) A umask of 222 is incorrect. It should be 0222, because octal
-literals always start with 0 in Perl, as in C.
-
=item umask not implemented
(F) Your machine doesn't implement the umask function and you tried to
you should remove AutoLoader from @ISA and change C<use AutoLoader;> to
C<use AutoLoader 'AUTOLOAD';>.
+=item Use of "package" with no arguments is deprecated
+
+(D deprecated) You used the C<package> keyword without specifying a package
+name. So no namespace is current at all. Using this can cause many
+otherwise reasonable constructs to fail in baffling ways. C<use strict;>
+instead.
+
=item Use of %s in printf format not supported
(F) You attempted to use a feature of printf that is accessible from
