Porters,
Following on from Steve Peters' id est is i.e. peeve:
http://www.mail-archive.com/perl5-porters@perl.org/msg89902.html
I was struck by one of my own: exempli gratia being abbreviated to eg or
eg., rather than e.g.
Before sending off an unappliable patch, I was wondering what was the
best way to go about this. The number of files is large, and concerns
only modules, some (all?) of which are dual-lifed on CPAN. What's the
best way forward?
% find . -name '*.pm' \
| xargs perl -nle 'print $ARGV if /(?<!\/)\beg\b/' \
| uniq
