:( Oh, indeed, it's documented, thanks. Yet, CL#1 works OK, and the reason why Perl can be confused here and care is required is neither clear nor explained, in documentation. How CL#4 can be parsed to what's printed out, is unclear. OK, just a thought...
Edit: OK, CL#1 was parsed specially because there was single letter identifier:
>perl -lwe "sub x{@_} print sort x(qw(q w e r t y))"
eqrtwy
>perl -lwe "sub xx{@_} print sort xx(qw(q w e r t y))"
qwerty

Are you posting in the right place? Check out Where do I post X? to know for sure.

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).

Want more info? How to link
or How to display code and escape characters
are good places to start.
