in reply to Re^5: safely passing args through ssh
in thread safely passing args through ssh

Why are you ignoring the entire section of my original post starting with "To be specific about the problem ..."???

I'm not looking to encode an arbitrary shell command. Given an $array that will invoke a perl interpreter via open(..., "-|", @$array) I am looking for ways to safely encode a perl script that will be passed to the interpreter via the command line.

    First, that's not true. I addressed that.

    Second, I don't happen to be interested in helping you work around a bug when it's easy to fix the bug itself.

    That's not true, you're trying to make it work with Perl and argcount.

    If it's limited to Perl, there are indeed ways.
