Anyone can learn a few simple command-line switches and instantly become more productive. You too can become a command-line ninja! Perl's got a reputation for producing unreadable, unmaintainable code. In some cases that's probably well-deserved, and TPC is filled with talks on modules and techniques that try to rein in some of that complexity. That's great, but sometimes people can forget that Perl's still a great language for throwing together quick and dirty little programs. And nothing is quicker or dirtier than the one-liner. > > While I was pulling that up I discovered that the organizers put me into a 20 minute slot instead of 50 minutes.
