For comparison, \"print \"Hello, world.\"\" produced 96 lines of output from\nB::Debug, but only 6 from B::Terse.\n\nThis module is useful for people who are writing their own back end, or who are learning about\nthe Perl internals. It's not useful to the average programmer.\n\nThis version of B::Terse is really just a wrapper that calls B::Concise with the -terse option.\nIt is provided for compatibility with old scripts (and habits) but using B::Concise directly is\nnow recommended instead.\n\nFor compatibility with the old B::Terse, this module also adds a method named \"terse\" to B::OP\nand B::SV objects. The B::SV method is largely compatible with the old one, though authors of\nnew software might be advised to choose a more user-friendly output format. The B::OP \"terse\"\nmethod, however, doesn't work well. Since B::Terse was first written, much more information in\nOPs has migrated to the scratchpad datastructure, but the \"terse\" interface doesn't have any way\nof getting to the correct pad. As a kludge, the new version will always use the pad for the main\nprogram, but for OPs in subroutines this will give the wrong answer or crash.\n",
