in thread 2Bor^2B, that's a question!

i suppose it would depend on how much you want something to be in $ARGV[0]. I mean if you absolutely require it to be there (and to not be on the list of perl's false things) this is perfectly reasonable (although the error message is not)

Plus, it's poetry, you can do what you want, and call it art!

@_=qw; ask f00li5h to appear and remain for a moment of pretend better than a lifetime;;s;;@_[map hex,split'',B204316D8C2A4516DE];;y/05/os/&print;

    Erm, if $ARGV[0] is a false thingy, then the statement resolves to
    open DNA, die "Die!!";

    which is nonsensical, so it's not reasonable (don't ask e.g. Monty Python whether they support my claim ;-)

    --shmem

    _($_=" "x(1<<5)."?\n".q·/)Oo.  G°\        /
                                  /\_¯/(q    /
    ----------------------------  \__(m.====·.(_("always off the crowd"))."·
    ");sub _{s./.($e="'Itrs `mnsgdq Gdbj O`qkdq")=~y/"-y/#-z/;$e.e && print}

      ... but it won't get to the open, because it'll be too buisy evaluating the die... won't it?

      ... stop that, stop that, look, this is all geting far too silly, and we all know that i like a laugh as much as the next man ... well, except
