i just found an interseting little oddity i want fixed. i (like many of
you) run one liners for testing snippets of code. i typically use a -p
or -n loop and type in test data. i get tired of retyping in all the
data each time when i want to edit the previous line only a little
bit. i tried using ssfe (split screen front end, comes with sirc char
client) and i saw no output due to pipe buffering. so i had to put a
$|++ in the one liner to make it work. perl6 should have a command line
option to enable $| for STDOUT.
i haven't see any threads about perl's command line options. like the
special variables, i think it could use a good editing and overhaul.
