%description
In bash, the shell will automatically chomp the result of a backtick call.
s=`whoami` # me
echo =$s= # =me=
echo =`whoami`= # =me=
In perl, we must**** do:
$s = `whoami`;
chomp($s);
print "=$s=";
The goal of this module is for this to DWIM:
print "=".`whoami`."=";
Another case where this is potentially useful:
use Backtick::AutoChomp;
printf "me(%s), host(%s), kernel(%s), date(%s)\n",
`whoami`,
`hostname`,
`uname -r`,
`date`,
;
**** Yes, there are pure-perl ways to do _whoami_, _hostname_, etc. But
keep in mind programs that don't have equivalents ... and also, especially
for temp/quick-n-dirty scripts, the convenience factor :)
Note that this is implemented as a source filter. It replaces a backtick or
qx statement with a 'do{}' statement.
