This JAPH specifically relies on pure perl behavior without any intervening pragma or switch, and must be run with Deparse in order to see the message, like this from the command line:

perl -MO=Deparse this.pl.

Tested on ActivePerl Build 522 (5.00503) and Cygwin v5.6.1.

u j t S n a t o e h r , e p l r a h k c r e


Update: Thanks da for pointing out the one-liner:

perl -MO=Deparse -e"u j t S n a t o e h r , e p l r a h k c r e"

    On *nix perl you can shorten that to a one-liner for extra-special sig powers:
    perl -MO=Deparse -e'u j t S n a t o e h r , e p l r a h k c r e'
