Shenpen has asked for the wisdom of the Perl Monks concerning the following question:

Fratres Perlis saluto!

I've recently read the perlrun manpage, and wonder what the -x parameter is for. What purpose had Larry in mind when creating this functionality? The manpage mentions e-mail headers as an example, hmmmm... maybe this feature is to send programs to your computer in e-mail? Could someone suggest some useful, practical or fun uses of the -x parameter, especially for e-mails?

cum gratiae maximae,

Shenpen
