Hi Monks, consider an array @a and an array @b. I want to find out wether all the elements of @a are there in @b for example @a = (-true, -depth=1) @b = (-search, -depth=1, -true, -expand_all...) In the above case the command should return true, all the elements in @a are in @b. I implemeted this foreach 
foreach $elem_b(@b) {
  foreach $elem_a(@a) {
.
.
  }
}

This is a bit tedious method. Could you suggest a short method or something more elegent
