Perl 5 should also be defaulting to Windows-1252 … little things that make Perl 5 seem old and crufty … Perl 5 violates the principle of least astonishment.

So, a highly limited Latin only encoding seems modern/uncrufty to you in 2012? There are many encodings and it’s pretty easy with newer perls to use whatever you like or to default to the entirely reasonable utf-8. And not to put too fine a point on it—as the kids used to say and with full knowledge that two of the very best hackers on PM are WinCats—but I’ve never ceased to be astonished that anyone used Windows ever.

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.
