I wonder what is so strange about rule 24. The perlstyle manual page
says: space around most operators. Which is what rule 24 is
saying, but it's listing the exceptions. The reason I put space between
++ and -- and its operands is that those
operators are "large" (two characters).
As for ->, it's a binary operator. I put whitespace
around other binary operators, so why not ->? If you
don't, you can get long blobs of text, without a resting place
for the eyes. Perl should look like English, not German. ;-).

English isn't my first language either. But it's Larry's first
language....
