Hi Will,

Richard wrote me off line that the search had been updated
too, so I gave it the search I bombed out a month or so ago:

https://www.google.com/search?q=site%3Adocs.raku.org+unit32

Forth one down.

int8	(int8_t in C)
int16	(int16_t in C)
int32	(int32_t in C)
int64	(int64_t in C)
byte, uint8	(uint8_t in C)
uint16	(uint16_t in C)
uint32	(uint32_t in C)
uint64	(uint64_t in C)
num32	(float in C)
num64	(double in C)

Yippee!

Now to figure out why I was bombing on int32 (DWORD)
[2] > my uint32 $x = 2
2
[3] > my int32 $y = $x.int32

No such method 'int32' for invocant of type 'Int'.  Did you mean 'Int'?
   in block <unit> at <unknown file> line 1
   in any <main> at 
/opt/rakudo-pkg/bin/../share/perl6/runtime/perl6.moarvm line 1
   in any <entry> at 
/opt/rakudo-pkg/bin/../share/perl6/runtime/perl6.moarvm line 1


But this works:

[4] > my int32 $y = $x.Int
2

Hmmmmmmmm.
