What would the PerlMonks say if they could see me coding this lousy shortcut?
Use my method, post it and find out ;-).
Seriously though, a short post in Code Catacombs is a great way to get input on your code. After incorporating other people's suggestions into the code, I've often found it has vastly improved and I've learned great deal more in the process than I would have if I just tried to improve it myself.
Either I found out that I was reinventing the wheel (higly un-popular sport, I have heard)
It's one of my favorite sports actually, far ahead of golf :). If you haven't already, take a look at Re-inventing the wheel is a 'Good Thing'.

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.
