Sweet!!! I just love this:

my @c; for (my $i = 0; $i < length; $i++) { for (my $j = 2; $i + $j <= length; $j++) { push @c, substr $_, $i, $j; } }

*Very* pretty - thank you so much! Exactly the kind of thing I was asking for.

Incidentally, Perl complains about your "abuse" of $_:

Attempt to free unreferenced scalar: SV 0x9730848, Perl interpreter: 0 +x970a008 at /tmp/perm2 line 17, <DATA> line 1.

but that's easily fixed. Again, thank you - that's a really nifty way to build that permutation list!
