Ah I figured it out. Read up on tr/// and ull get it Think about this $_ = "abc"; y/a-c/x-z/; print $_; # Prints xyz It goes off an ascii table. ` is right before a and { is right after z.	[reply]

Ah it all makes sense now. y; -/:-@[-`{-};`-{/" -;; That translates characters. So (space) thru / : thru @ [ thru ` { thru } Take that set of characters and switch it out with the corresponding character in this list ` thru { (Includs a-z) / " - Pretty nifty.	[reply]
