I think most systems used now have POSIX built in commands, correct?

Interesting point, that Classic Shell Scripting book suggests using printf instead of echo due to this, but I've not really seen this in practice.

HTML::Template::Compiled::Classic(3pm)			User Contributed Perl Documentation		    HTML::Template::Compiled::Classic(3pm)

NAME
HTML::Template::Compiled::Classic - Provide the classic functionality like HTML::Template SYNOPSIS
use HTML::Template::Compiled::Classic compatible => 1; my $htcc = HTML::Template::Compiled::Classic->new( # usual parameters for HTML::Template::Compiled ); DESCRIPTION
This class provides features which can not be used together with features from HTML::Template::Compiled. These are: dots in TMPL_VARs If you want to use <TMPL_VAR NAME="some.var.with.dots"> you cannot use the dot-feature <TMPL_VAR NAME="some.hash.keys"> at the same time. Subref variables In HTML::Template, the following works: my $ht = HTML::Template->new( scalarref => "<TMPL_VAR foo>", ); $ht->param(foo => sub { return "bar" }); print $ht->output; # prints 'bar' This doesn't work in HTML::Template::Compiled (in the past it did, but as of HTC version 0.70 it won't any more, sorry). METHODS
compiler_class returns HTML::Template::Compiled::Compiler::Classic validate_var gets the var name (parsed out of "NAME="foo.bar"" and returns if the string is a valid var name perl v5.14.2 2012-05-26 HTML::Template::Compiled::Classic(3pm)
