in thread Using Perl saves time....
However, making "ls" do different things depending on output channel leads to this very discussion we are having (regarding the purpose of "ls -1"). Hence, it was a bad choice. Hence, it was an idiotic action, and it happened "at Bezerkeley".
Do I think that people at Berkeley are stupid? No.
Do I think that all software that comes out of BSD releases are idiotic? Hell, no.
Please don't make this more than it is. Me complaining about a misfeature. It's called having an opinion.
