I don't know why that would happen because when pasted into my zsh on macos all these slashes magically appear:

perl -MHTTP::Tiny -e 'eval HTTP::Tiny->new->get(shift)->{content}' htt +ps://www.perlmonks.com/index.pl\?displaytype\=displaycode\;abspart\=1 +\;node_id\=574225\;part\=1

    That's impressed me!

    I'm connecting to a Mac at work through ssh in a Linux terminal which doesn't add any backslashes.

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

      Nice edge case! It's always something. Quoting the url works too.

      Sorry I meant to say that, at current numbers, Apple is adding about 24 million Macs with 48 million copies of Perl to the world each year. That's a lot of Perl and it's only 4 clicks away from the desktop! One good Perl-centric application could bring it front and center.
