Wow! Hold it! Am I the only one who finds this absurd? More than one
shift on the same array in one single expressing, sounds like bad style
to me. Comments?
In one of my programs, this would be

sub commify {
    my $max = shift;
    my $sep = shift;
    my $end = shift;
Until someone does

	 my $sep = shift;
	 my $max = shift;
	 my $end = shift;

or

	 my $sep = shift;
	 my $max = shift;


to it. Especially the former has caused people who work for
me pain, which is why I adopted the one-line method. That
or splice.
