OK, this is going to be one of those things that people try to claim gets
Perl a reputation for line noise, but pedants should note that every
character here other than the space is in the set of portable file names...
Anyway, is there a shorter way to write
perl -0777lp015e0
?
[What it does is quite cynically left as an exercise to the reader. :-)]
I'm sure the approach was used in an obfuscated Perl contest winner, but I
also have this memory that theirs was shorter.
