in reply to Ceasar was JAPH!

Sorry to ask it this way, but where is the obfuscation? Without executing it, without using -MO=Deparse on it, here is what I can say:

  • It prints "Just Another Perl Hacker\n"
  • The white space in the ;-quoted string gives it away instantly
  • You shifted the alphabet one step to the right to "encode" this
  • The next s/// (or s;;;) capitalize the words
  • Everything after the print is cosmetic and has no particular use
You are not using many tricks, apart from special quotes...

    Good job. You can install yourself as /usr/bin/perl!


    :)


    Sorry if you didn't like the script... for me it was fun to write. (If memory serves, letter-shifting is known as Ceasar encryption and thus the name)

    If you have any suggestions, i'll be happy to hear.
