-[ List each enhancement as a =head2 entry ]
+As of Perl 5.36, you can iterate over multiple values at a time by specifying
+a list of lexicals within parentheses. For example,
+
+    for my ($key, $value) (%hash) { ... }
+    for my ($left, $right, $gripping) (@moties) { ... }
+
+Attempting to specify a list after C<for my> was previously a syntax error.
+
+For more detail see L<perlsyn/Compound Statements>.
