[MacPerl-Forum] [MacPerl] All Perl Solution



Kent Tegels, a member of the Omaha Perl Mongers, gave me permission to
forward this clever all Perl Y2K solution to the MacPerl list.

David Seay

------------

I was recently asked to make sure all my Perl scripts were updated to Y2K.
Really, I don't see what the problem is, I just run this script and it
seems to fix everything.

# No shebang for windows, duh
@plfiles=glob("*.pl");
foreach $f (@plfiles) {
	open(inf,"<$f")||die($!);
	$o = "y2k.".$f;
	open(outf,">$o")||die($!);
	while(<inf>) {
		s/y/k/g;
		s/Y/K/g;
		print outf;
	}
	close outf;
	close inf;
}
exit;

And all my Y to K problems were solved!

Moral of the code:
You know you're a geek when you write jokes in Perl.
