Heh. Yeah, I wondered about that. When I think about "famous code",
I'm thinking of stuff like this:

It's not just space mangling, though - it's only part one of five. I'm
sure there's lots of other goodies to come. For my money, Perl one
liners *really* come into their own with the fantastic collection of
modules from the CPAN. Such as:
$ perl -M5.010 -MFile::Find -e 'find(sub {say if /\.txt$/} , ".")'
which is quite handy on Windows (or anywhere you don't have find (1) present).

I'd like to add http://twitter.com/perloneliner to that list - even if
you aren't on Twitter, you can subscribe to the RSS feed and get a
pretty cool one liner every day.
cheers,
