Re: use strict

[Jenda]

I was not using Perl in the old Perl4 times. I use strict in all my scripts for quite some time. But I would not want it to be default. It'd break my one-liners. And it's those I tend to type repeatedly, not the first four lines of the scripts (

#!perl
use strict;
use warnings;
no warnings 'uninitialized';

)

Besides most of the problems would not be solved. People would just blindly put my or our all over the place to silence the error messages and their variables would be just as global and their programs just as badly designed.

It'd break my one-liners.

Most suggestions to have it enabled by default make the exception for command line scripts (if -e or -E is used). AFAIK, Perl6 doesn't enable strict for command line scripts either.
