Very ugly :)

I really wanted to have the line break between the for and the map, since unlike punctuation, those can't be run together. However I was not quite able to convince the program to collapse into anything smaller.

You can shave three characters off of the first line: one by noting that 0>print(...) can be shortened to !print(...) (let's assume you can print things), and two by noting that $x=~s/$/.../ always evaluates to 1, so ($x=~s/$/.../)&...&0 can be written as ($x!~s/$/.../)&... instead. This makes the first line:

$"x=5;$%=$_%5&4?$@!~s&$&chr$%&e&$@=~s&.{5}&!print$"^=$\&&e:$%*4+$_%5^3

And after shaving off three characters, you can put for on the first line, add some filling to the second line, and have the break where you wanted it without increasing the code size.

HTH
