My crap PERL program
Hey all,
I've been trying to learn Perl on my BSD box. When it came to printing the files out, it bothered me that the lines weren't numbered. So here's my little *crap* claim to some-form-of-fame Perl script which numbers files:
-------------------------------------------------------------------
#!/usr/bin/perl
# --------------------------------------------
# Numbers and outputs the lines in a text file
# --September 2002----------------------------
while ($ln = <>) {
print $.,": ", $ln;
}
-------------------------------------------------------------------
Ok, it's not the be-all and end-all of Perl scripts, but it works!!!

If it only does one person any good (like me) it's worth it!
