I have a script like this and i'm trying to understand how it works... the $_=q(with all those unprintable char after) how does this work. Please help I need it bad, i've been serching since yesterday...

Read the docs for qin perlop. Learn how to build a q operator statement with different delimiters.

$_=q uit it u;
print; # prints 'it it '

Enjoy!

Hi! THanks a lot, you've put me on the right page! ;) But I can't figure out how the tr{}{} function operator works... I have a "tr" followed by a bunch of garbage in a script but can't figure out how to translate this stuf... any exemple? thanks again for your precious help! you're my superhero ;)

[cwest]

Read perlop for the tr operator. It's the same thing... these operators ( q, qq, qw, s, tr, m, qx, qr ) can all be delimited by nearly any delimiter.
