A nit-pick, but the substitution should really be
s/.//s
to be equivalent with the others. Note the s modifier; it makes . match leading newlines as well. Otherwise you remove the first non-newline character from the string.
my %ex = (
"\n" . 'regexp' => sub { s/.// },
"\n" . 'regexp/s' => sub { s/.//s },
"\n" . 'chop' => sub { $_ = reverse; chop; $_ = reverse; },
"\n" . 'substr1' => sub { substr($_,0,1) = '' },
"\n" . 'substr2' => sub { $_ = substr($_,1) },
);
for (sort keys %ex) {
$ex{$_}->();
print "[$_]\n";
}
__END__
[chop]
[
egexp]
[regexp/s]
[substr1]
[substr2]
Update: Added example.

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).
