by doing so.
Yeah, I think this is the right thing to do.
This means that if some later code refactoring parses $tocmd once and
passes an array around, it would be easy to change this to
open my $fh, -|, @$cmd, $file;
and there would be no temptation to do something involving pasting
@$cmd back together into a single string. Of course such a
refactoring is not very likely, but that kind of thing is a good
reason to prefer this style in general.
So for what it's worth, I like this patch.
