Same here, maybe that's why I find it so anoying!

At any rate, the node I mentioned above was followed by a "Don't you use line breaks?" question, which I tought was in good order. Not only because of perlmonks aesthetics, but because the coding did look rather odd.

I'm one of those guys that will do:
my $foo = 'foo'; my $foobar = 'foobar'; my $foobarbaz = 'foobar and baz';
instead of
my $foo = 'foo'; my $foobar = 'foobar'; my $foobarbaz = 'foobar and baz';
the contrary can be applied to my apartment tho. My living room looks much more like:
my $foo = 'foo'; my $foobar = $foo.'bar'; my $foobarbaz = $foo.'bar'.' and baz';
:o)
