A humble novice writes... Could one of the enlightened masters here please explain the pun in #5 ? I've never even had course to use $^ before. Is it a heresy that I had to look it up in the Gecko book, not having either Camel or Llama to hand ? -- or is that just on Slashdot ?

The meaning of $^X (was RE: RE: RE: Apparel design entries)

    A look into perlvar tells me that $^X is the name of the binary that the script was started from. Run this code to see it :

    perl -e 'print $^X'
