Jan 1, 2014 at 13:37 comment added tobyink @PeterTaylor, say is a syntax error in Perl 5 unless you explicitly write a pragma to enable it such as use v5.10 or use feature 'say'. In Perl 6 it's enabled automatically.
Jan 1, 2014 at 13:35 comment added tobyink @DomHastings, personally I think if you're going to do it with "-e" or "-E", I'd say that you should then have to include the entire command, including "perl -E" in your character count.
Jan 1, 2014 at 12:04 comment added Peter Taylor It's considered acceptable to specify that you're using Perl 5 and use say for no penalty.
Jan 1, 2014 at 11:54 comment added Dom Hastings Hey there, if you reverse the string and barewords, you can save a char: print"````"^RPQT. It might be possible to use say too on 5.10+ using -E instead of -e, but I don't know if that incurs a +2 penalty for different command-line args?
