Sorry? Oh you want substr() to be a method, not a function, you want to write $line.chomp(); instead of chomp($line); right? I'd rather not. Not everything has to be an object. Not everything has to be called like methods. Would you like to have to write $x = $y.sin().plus($y) instead of $x = sin($x) + $y; ? There is a big difference between a functionaly complete OO language and a language that forces everything to be an object. > I love Perl, it's great for concrete tasks class.
