However, I wonder if your comment is a veiled quip at my "Improve
redability" claim (which is also ironically unreadable). :-)
More concerning is that it's a perl 5.10ism -- you cannot assume that
perl 5.10 is installed on all platforms. I really wouldn't use this
construct.
Exactly. I started with perl4 (no really...), then moved away from
hard-core perl coding around 2000 and have been just a perl dabbler
since then. So I didn't recognize //, though I suspected it was a
newer construct. :-)
