Source filters alter the program text of a module before Perl sees it, much as a C preproces

NAME SYNOPSIS DESCRIPTION SEE ALSO NAME ops - Perl pragma to restrict unsafe operations when compiling SYNOPSIS perl -Mops=:default ... # only allow reasonably safe operations perl -M-ops=system ... # disable the 'system' opcode DESCRIPTION Since the ops pragma currently has an irreversible global effect, it is only of significant practical use with the -M option on the command line. See the Opcode module for information about opcodes, optags, opmasks and important information about

List Operators (Rightward) On the right side of a list operator, the comma has very low precedence, such that it controls all comma-separated expressions found there. The only operators with lower precedence are the logical operators "and" , "or" , and "not" , which may be used to evaluate calls to list operators without the need for parentheses: open HANDLE, "< :utf8", "filename" or die "Can't open: $!\n"; However, some people find that code harder to read than writing it with parentheses

syswrite FILEHANDLE,SCALAR,LENGTH,OFFSET syswrite FILEHANDLE,SCALAR,LENGTH syswrite FILEHANDLE,SCALAR Attempts to write LENGTH bytes of data from variable SCALAR to the specified FILEHANDLE, using write(2). If LENGTH is not specified, writes whole SCALAR. It bypasses buffered IO, so mixing this with reads (other than sysread()), print, write, seek, tell, or eof may cause confusion because the perlio and stdio layers usually buffer data. Returns the number of bytes actually written, or undef if
