Re^3: First time using Argsby JavaFan (Canon) |

In Programming class, we were taught that <> = <STDIN>.That's wrong. <> is shorthand for <ARGV>. I could write this without asking for user input...the only problem was that one of the args would be a string that may contain spaces, and I'm not sure how best to handle that. Make the user enter that argument with quotes?Quotes, or backslashes should work in all shells that I know off. (The spaces are special to the shell, Perl has nothing to do with that).
