in thread qw with anonomous list ref

Most often I use this to do something to several arrays at once:
my %silly_example; for(\(@couple, @of, @arrays, @here)) { $silly_example{shift @$_}++; splice @$_, 7, 1; push @$_, shift @$_; }
Occasionally it comes it handy for a similar use of map or some such.

Makeshifts last the longest.
