extremely similar tool if you dont want to open a browser:
our version? now that is some syntax perl has.
it's a lexical alias to a package variable. super simple stuff.
Thanks! Now I'm curious, do you write Perl regularly? I don't see too much of it, my sense is that it's still around in sysadmin type work though
i write little things like the above in it for myself, but i've never used it much at work. but yeah, it's long past its peak and unlikely to ever recover, although it does still have a community using it and writing new libraries for it, maintaining and developing the core language.
it's a great language, i love it.
