in thread A curses-based JAPH

I've never written one. I suppose if I did, my first attempt might look something like: 
#?<')I;G0G2G5S="!A;F]T:&5R(%!E<FP@:&%C:V5R)P```
eval<DATA>;sub'_{$_=unpack+u=>$_=>until/u(?{eval})/}
   __DATA__
seek+DATA=>$%,%$;_%;for<DATA>=~'.(.*.).'

    Thanks for that. Very evil, er, nice. /me scribbles some new obfu tricks.

    If I may make a criticism of this first attempt from a JAPH beginner, it is the title. AFAICT, by Perl Monks convention, it should read something like "My First JAPH!!!" and contain a plea to please be kind. ;-)

    Oh, and it's not canonical. To canonicalize, replace the first line with: 

    #@<')I;G0G2G5S="!A;F]T:&5R(%!E<FP@:&%C:V5R+"<``

    As a bit of a spoiler, re-formatting the code like this: 
    #@<')I;G0G2G5S="!A;F]T:&5R(%!E<FP@:&%C:V5R+"<``
eval<DATA>;
sub X { $_ = unpack('u', $_) until /u(?{eval})/ }
__DATA__
seek(DATA, 0, 0); X() for <DATA> =~ /.(.*.)./;

    makes it a bit easier to understand.
