Not sure why Perl::Tidy isn't happy with STDIN coming from BBEdit. It
might have to do with the 'getline' implementation, but I think not.
Perl::Tidy::perltidy seemed to be reading from an empty filehandle
based on the results I managed to get into a log file. You might check
on the BBEdit list, http://www.barebones.com/support/lists.html to
see what the issue is. I know perltidy has been mentioned before.
After installing IO::Scalar, something like this worked for me. YMMV.
#!/usr/bin/perl -wn
use Perl::Tidy;
BEGIN { my $input_string = ""; my $output_string = ""; }
$input_string .= $_;
END {
Perl::Tidy::perltidy(
source => \$input_string,
destination => \$output_string
);
print "$output_string\n";
}
__END__
