Converting Unix executable files
I loaded OS X Panther on my Mac G4 and found that many files previously saved as Word or Word Perfect files were inadventently converted to Unix executable files. When I try to read these in Word, it cannot recognize or translate the file properly. Does anyone know how to translate these files? Is there a filter or software program that does this?

ppi::token::word
PPI::Token::Word(3) User Contributed Perl Documentation PPI::Token::Word(3)
NAME
PPI::Token::Word - The generic "word" Token
INHERITANCE
PPI::Token::Word
isa PPI::Token
isa PPI::Element
DESCRIPTION
A "PPI::Token::Word" object is a PPI-specific representation of several different types of word-like things, and is one of the most common
Token classes found in typical documents.
Specifically, it includes not only barewords, but also any other valid Perl identifier including non-operator keywords and core functions,
and any include "::" separators inside it, as long as it fits the format of a class, function, etc.
METHODS
There are no methods available for "PPI::Token::Word" beyond those provided by its PPI::Token and PPI::Element parent classes.
We expect to add additional methods to help further resolve a Word as a function, method, etc over time. If you need such a thing right
now, look at Perl::Critic::Utils.
literal
Returns the value of the Word as a string. This assumes (often incorrectly) that the Word is a bareword and not a function, method,
keyword, etc. This differs from "content" because "Foo'Bar" expands to "Foo::Bar".
method_call
Answers whether this is the name of a method in a method call. Returns true if yes, false if no, and nothing if unknown.
TO DO
- Add "function", "method" etc detector methods

See the support section in the main module.
