Time that could be used for more productive activities like coding and resolving bugs, for instance. Having said that, I developed a Screen Editor (similar to a...

Some tasks are too menial for a dedicated script but still too cumbersome even with the many neat one-liner options of "perl -E". This small script fills the gap: various one-letter commands & magic variables (with meaningful aliases too) and more nifty loop options take Perl programming to the command line.

Same for hard-to-print values: $  pl  'e  "${q}Perl$q",  "$Q@A$Q"'  one-liner $  pl  'e  \"Perl",  \@A,  undef'  one-liner Loop over args, printing each with line ending.  ...
