in thread encryption golf (one time pad)

If so, then mine is 6 to your 18.

According to the general Perl golf rules (which can be seen, for example, here, near the bottom), "If you use options on the #! line, the options themselves are counted, including the leading space and -." (emphasis in the original). So  -0777pe"$_^=<>" would be 16.

    On the command line, it's 16. In ikegami's file-based version, I count 13 including the leading space for the options. That's quite an improvement over 18.
