    1: # As our unix printer setup is weird and I sometimes want to
    2: # print to networked (HP) printers, I needed something like
    3: # netcat. I was unsatisfied with <tt>telnet</tt>, as it did
    4: # output stuff I didn't want, and I didn't want to add the
    5: # redirection to /dev/null. Perl to the rescue:
    6: 
    7: use strict;
    8: use IO::Socket;
    9: 
    10: select IO::Socket::INET->new(PeerAddr => shift, PeerPort => (shift || 23));
    11: print
    12:   for <>;
    13: 
    14: __END__
    15: # or, as a oneliner:
    16: perl -MIO::Socket -pe 'BEGIN{select IO::Socket::INET->new(PeerAddr=>shift,PeerPort =>(shift||23))}'

Title:
Use:  <p> text here (a paragraph) </p>
and:  <code> code here </code>
to format your post; it's "PerlMonks-approved HTML":



  • Are you posting in the right place? Check out Where do I post X? to know for sure.
  • Posts may use any of the Perl Monks Approved HTML tags. Currently these include the following:
    <code> <a> <b> <big> <blockquote> <br /> <dd> <dl> <dt> <em> <font> <h1> <h2> <h3> <h4> <h5> <h6> <hr /> <i> <li> <nbsp> <ol> <p> <small> <strike> <strong> <sub> <sup> <table> <td> <th> <tr> <tt> <u> <ul>
  • Snippets of code should be wrapped in <code> tags not <pre> tags. In fact, <pre> tags should generally be avoided. If they must be used, extreme care should be taken to ensure that their contents do not have long lines (<70 chars), in order to prevent horizontal scrolling (and possible janitor intervention).
  • Want more info? How to link or How to display code and escape characters are good places to start.
