On: Learn Perl in about 2 hours 30 minutes

[berntb]

Huh, I thought "everyone" used perlbrew now?

It has been on my todo to try the REPL for a long time, but since Perl is the most powerful command line tool in bash, I've never seen a reason to use an interactive tool.

  alias p=perl
  p -e '...'
  p -ne '....'
  # etc.

Edit: With powerful I didn't mean "rm -rf", etc. :-)

I don't use perlbrew. Haven't tried it, since installing your own Perl by-hand is easy enough.
