should work as well.

A program should be light and agile, its subroutines connected like a string of pearls. The spirit and intent of the program should be retained throughout. There should be neither too little or too much, neither needless loops nor useless variables, neither lack of structure nor overwhelming rigidity." - The Tao of Programming, 4.1 - Geoffrey James

    Thanks guys! You are right. However, my actual program has this in a string variable and it doesn't work if I have it like this:
    [% foo = 'Blah blah,' %]
[% foo  | replace(',$', '') %]

    Any idea why? Appreciate the help!

      Not true. It works fine. 
      use Template qw( );

my $template = Template->new();

my $input = <<'__EOI__';
[% foo = 'Blah blah,' %]
[% foo  | replace(',$', '') %]
__EOI__

$template->process(\$input)
   or die $template->error();
