31! `die"Just Another Perl Hacker\n"` Ok, in fact thats the same length (minus the space), but it has more 'features' (ends with a newline) :-) `-- #!/usr/bin/perl for(ref bless{},just'another'perl'hacker){s-:+-$"-g&&print$_.$/}` [download]	[reply] [d/l] [select]

Get one less character with all of the same features! `die"Just another Perl hacker "` [download] Just embed an actual newline into the string :) And actually, I think the usual rules don't count physical newlines, so you might see it as saving two characters.	[reply] [d/l]

That's not a JAPH... the "A" and the "H" should be lowercased, and there's a comma or a newline (you get to choose which) missing from the end... Anyway, you could have ommited the space after the print... :-)	[reply]
Canonical JAPH (was Re^4: Infinite JAPHs?) by merlyn (Sage) on Mar 31, 2005 at 15:16 UTC
Good, I'm glad someone pointed that out. The canonical JAPH (as used by JAPH #0, namely me) produces precisely the string: `"Just another Perl hacker,"` [download] The comma comes from the fact that it was a sign-off at the end of my Usenet postings: blah blah blah blah blah print "Just another Perl hacker," (my normal dot-sig here) -- Randal L. Schwartz, Perl hacker Be sure to read my standard disclaimer if this is a reply.	[reply] [d/l]
