A funny conversation about HTML::Mason

[11:26:35] <zamolxes> Shevek: so I take it you use mason with catalyst? so besides the data stashing, what would be different about using mason in a catalyst environment? (as opposed to standalone) [11:28:43] <@mst> a lot of the stuff that&#8217;d be in autohandlers and dhandlers ends up in controllers instead [11:28:54] <@mst> Mason w/Catalyst can be very clean [11:29:20] <@mst> I think my Mason allergy is largely caused by the fact that without catalyst, it tends to end up as a <a href="http://www.php.net/" class="ext"><acronym title="Programmers Hate PHP ;-)">PHP</acronym></a>-like ball of snot [11:29:57] <zamolxes> indeed [11:46:35] <drPoggs> r [11:47:01] <@mst> r [12:02:53] Cctoide_ tries to figure out&#8230; [12:45:08] <Shevek> So, is catalyst meant to create t/Foo/Bar.t or t/Foo_Bar.t ? [12:46:09] <Shevek> I get the impression that I used an old version which created the former, when what I really want is the latter&#8230; [12:49:20] <quicksilver> mst: Mason, like many tools, gives you enough rope to hang yourself, but it doesn&#8217;t force you to insert your neck&#8230; [12:50:52] <@mst> no, but the sign by the noose saying &#8220;heaven this way&#8221; seems to mislead most people who use it
