if you're passing user input to the shell

if youre passing data from untrusted sources unlaundered into the shell (see perlsec) is both more general and to the point. If I'm the user - whom I mostly trust - there's nothing wrong with my data. Except if there is, of course.

</nitpick>

perl -le'print map{pack c,($-++?1:13)+ord}split//,ESEL'

Posts may use any of the Perl Monks Approved HTML tags. Currently these include the following:
<code> <a> <b> <big> <blockquote> <br /> <dd> <dl> <dt> <em> <font> <h1> <h2> <h3> <h4> <h5> <h6> <hr /> <i> <li> <nbsp> <ol> <p> <small> <strike> <strong> <sub> <sup> <table> <td> <th> <tr> <tt> <u> <ul>
Snippets of code should be wrapped in <code> tags not <pre> tags. In fact, <pre> tags should generally be avoided. If they must be used, extreme care should be taken to ensure that their contents do not have long lines (<70 chars), in order to prevent horizontal scrolling (and possible janitor intervention).
Want more info? How to link or How to display code and escape characters are good places to start.
