Re^2: OS agnostic C&P CLI snippets with -E

LOL! xD

I know you didn't mean it that way, but I didn't intend to bash any OS in any way.

I'm primarily interested in using Perl as universal and low barrier as possible.

I'm surprised how many people here are very vocal about their tribal instincts regarding OS, IDE, other languages (including P6/Raku) or even REPL/Debugger.

There was a time where I thought the defining quality of the Perl community was its tolerance and open mindedness, but maybe the composition changed to the worse.
