Bod, I'll take that as a vote for "Unorthodox".

... or are you suggesting that harangzsolt33's unorthodox Perl coding style is ahead of its time and will become mainstream in the future? :)

I think this coding style was ahead of it's time in the 80s. No joke ;)

And it's not a bad one, it's just frozen in time and ignoring what happened in the meantime°.

He's exceptionally good in ignoring ...

Anyway I'm not downvoting him for his coding style.˛

°) for instance, does Tiny-Perl really have no multiline Here-Docs? All these print statements are like staring into the closet of my grandma...

˛) which is actually Orthodox in it's antiquity

There may be a reason for this:

I've come up with a set of rules that describe our reactions to technologies:

1. Anything that is in the world when you’re born is normal and ordinary and is just a natural part of the way the world works.
2. Anything that's invented between when you’re fifteen and thirty-five is new and exciting and revolutionary and you can probably get a career in it.
3. Anything invented after you're thirty-five is against the natural order of things.

I've been guilty of that too LanX, I'm sure others have too...

However, I think the difference is that I didn't so much ignore by choice but through true ignorance...
I do try to improve when presented with what seems like a better way. Usually - if it comes from the Monastery, what seems like a better way, is a better way.

You'll forgive me if I don't dwell on that thought for too long...

Good plan :)

I certainly hope not... ...progress (usually) happens for a reason.
