One of Larry's purported factors in the design of Camelia (and by extension, Perl 6) was to appeal to 7 year old girls (and by extension, people new to programming in general).

In addition, another design principle of Perl6 was to make it "less Unix centric". Whereas Perl had s/// and tr///, Perl 6 retains these but adds subst and trans, which is friendlier to new programmers, and self-documenting to some degree.

It seems odd, then, that we still have the grep operator named so. Even in Perl, grep - as in globally search a regular expression and print - bears little resemblance to what it actually does. It's more of a filter, filtering elements out that do not evaluate True to a given expression.

What then would be it's alternative friendly name? Taking into account these design principles...

	RFC: A more Perl6-esque "unpack"
	================================

	This is an idea for an "unpack" replacement. The basic reasoning behind it, is
	that number encodings and string encodings needn't be treated all that
	differently. Instead of passing the name of a string encoding, you can pass
	a native type object. When decoding things of determinable lengths, any number
	of types can be given.

	A variable length thing without a length indication can only be passed at the
