Don't know why I didn't think of this before, but the thing I miss most about pugs is no -d. Yes, I know that you can use say at strategic places, and re-run the program, but I really like interactive debuggers. Maybe it was all that time spent with DOS debug pulling apart my old XT's BIOS and hack 8086 machine code, or the extensive use of gdb to debug my C++ programs at university. I've just always been a debugger person.
$h=$ENV{HOME};my@q=split/\n\n/,`cat $h/.quotes`;$s="$h/." ."signature";$t=`cat $s`;print$t,"\n",$q[rand($#q)],"\n";
