Not as pretty, but seems to do the same thing?
In this case, my intention was to use the sorting of the output to illustrate in an
immediately easy-to-see manner, the relationship between
sitelib, sitelibexp and installsitelib , and then the comparison
to the same series for sitearch, for example.
In this case the "prettiness" is part of the point, and otherwise of course TMTOWTDI. But note that your alternative certainly falls lower on the portability scale since you are relying on the which tool, which is *nix-centric, and won't be present on many MS Windows boxes, as is also true of the grep command. Although I didn't write this tool on M$ Windows, it's certainly my intention that Win32-Perl users can use it as
well as *nix-perl users.
Thanks for your feedback!

Posts may use any of the Perl Monks Approved HTML tags. Currently these include the following:
<code> <a> <b> <big>
<blockquote> <br /> <dd>
<dl> <dt> <em> <font>
<h1> <h2> <h3> <h4>
<h5> <h6> <hr /> <i>
<li> <nbsp> <ol> <p>
<small> <strike> <strong>
<sub> <sup> <table>
<td> <th> <tr> <tt>
<u> <ul>
-
Snippets of code should be wrapped in
<code> tags not
<pre> tags. In fact, <pre>
tags should generally be avoided. If they must
be used, extreme care should be
taken to ensure that their contents do not
have long lines (<70 chars), in order to prevent
horizontal scrolling (and possible janitor
intervention).
