Given an URI to a Perl script. Fetch the script and have Perl execute it.

This is handy to be able to get to your scripts without having to copy them to the local file system.

$lynx -dump "http://www.perlmonks.com/index.pl?node_id=371944&displayt +ype=displaycode" | perl - one two hello one two
or for Pure Perl
perl -MLWP::Simple -e "getprint 'http://www.perlmonks.com/index.pl?nod +e_id=371945&displaytype=displaycode'" | perl - one two hello one two

Edit by tye, remove PRE tags

#!/usr/local/bin/perl print "hello\n"; print join (' ',@ARGV); print "\n";
