When I started out on unix.com, I was awestruck by the ultra-compressed one-liners from the clever guys (Scrutinizer, you were my hero!!!). Over time, I learned from you guys and started doling out some good (I believe Smilie

) one-liners myself.

I viewed one-liners as a way to test my knowledge and bring in some supposedly esoteric features of the tool into the solution. But, now I realize that the people who will actually use that solution will hardly appreciate (or be able to) the "art". Also, the "compression" will only confuse myself some time in the future! So, it's better to make a trade-off somewhere...

Where can I rant?

First of all, apologies to the admins for not reading the rules totally and missing the bit about ranting off about other OSs. But that raises a question. Where do you go to have a good rant, to vent your disgust at various corporations and thier hideous behaviour? :confused:

Hi guys... (Apologies for any typos etc...) This is basically a rant. I have been doing kids level projects and writing code to suit since around 1982, for the uProfessor, for the Sinclair Spectrum and later for the QL, IBM-XT in MS-DOS and after that for a 386DX40 up to Windows 95, until I...

ouse

ouse(3pm)						User Contributed Perl Documentation						 ouse(3pm)

NAME

       ouse - syntactic sugar to make Mouse one-liners easier

SYNOPSIS

	 # create a Mouse class on the fly ...
	 perl -Mouse=Foo -e 'has bar => ( is=>q[ro], default => q[baz] ); print Foo->new->bar' # prints baz

	 # loads an existing class (Mouse or non-Mouse)
	 # and re-"opens" the package definition to make
	 # debugging/introspection easier
	 perl -Mouse=+My::Class -e 'print join ", " => __PACKAGE__->meta->get_method_list'

DESCRIPTION

       ouse.pm is a simple source filter that adds "package $name; use Mouse;" to the beginning of your script and was entirely created because
       typing perl "-e'package Foo; use Mouse; ...'" was annoying me... especially after getting used to having "-Moose" for Moose.

INTERFACE

       "ouse" provides exactly one method and it is automatically called by perl:

       "oose->import()">
	   Pass a package name to import to be used by the source filter.

DEPENDENCIES

       You will need Filter::Simple and eventually Mouse

INCOMPATIBILITIES

       None reported. But it is a source filter and might have issues there.

SEE ALSO

       oose for "perl -Moose -e '...'"

       For all intents and purposes, blame:

       Chris Prather  "<perigrin@cpan.org>"

       ...who wrote oose.pm, which was adapted for use by Mouse by:

       Ricardo SIGNES "<rjbs@cpan.org>"
