Thanks for the info. I was only using the IP address as a "what if". For example, I could imagine a situation where I might have the following:
$string = "My IP address is 10.1.1.1!\n"

Or, better yet, what if I had a function that grabbed my current IP address (let's call it $IP) and then I changed the above to:
$string = "My current IP address is $IP\n"

Thanks in advance, I'm just trying to grasp this more fully. It is certainly a neat item to mess around with...

Also, is this discussed in any of the O'Reilly Perl books? Mine are at work right now, but I'll page through them when I go in tonight.

Title:
Use:  <p> text here (a paragraph) </p>
and:  <code> code here </code>
to format your post; it's "PerlMonks-approved HTML":



  • 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.
