in reply to Cheezy perl love poem

Hmmm.... If you actually try to run it the loops will end instantanously, achieving the exact oposite of what you wanted. Maybe you could use 'while (++$time) {'? Nice though.

perl -e'$b=unpack"b*",pack"H*","59dfce2d6b1664d3b26cd9969503";\ for(;$a<length$b;$a+=9){print+pack"b8",substr$b,$a,8;}'

    To be completely honest, the thought didn't cross my mind, which is surprising because the while loop is my favorite loop :). What I was thinking at the time was how easily the for loop integrates into this situation for poetic purposes :). Thanks for the tip :), that would also explain why a script I've been working on isn't working properly :).
