[...] In the Perl code, however, there is always a current line number object available and when this is referenced the line number is stored as a reference to the object. It looks like $current->{'contents'}->[-1]->{'line_nr'} = $line_nr; Hence the object can easily be shared. Perl's garbage collector takes care of memory leaks.
Wait a minute here... if the line number object is being shared, how do elements from different lines get different line numbers?
Why is the line number even an object in the first place? Why not simply read $. or use the HANDLE->input_line_number accessor?
