Re: STDIN Enter key not quite working

my($cookies) = <STDIN>;

By wrapping $cookies into parentheses, you're forcing list context. <STDIN> in list context reads up to the end of file. Ctrl+D sends the end of line.

If you just want to read a single line, don't use parentheses.

my $cookies = <STDIN>;

map{substr$_->[0],$_->[1]||0,1}[\*||{},3],[[]],[ref qr-1,-,-1],[{}],[sub{}^*ARGV,3]
