I remember seeing this somewhere but can't find it anymore....

want to define the value of a var on the commandline. is this possible ?

example commandline: perl -e $myvar=123; test.pl

example perl script test.pl: print "the value is $myvar";

this is a very simple example of course...

probably a stupid syntax error somewhere ;-)

any help greatly appreciated!
