Okay, looking good. Question:
- If "#!" strip leading whitespace on first line only - Otherwise, unfold lines and strip leading whitespace on all lines.
This latter part is implemented by:
+ # Strip any leading white space on each line + $script =~ s/^\s*//mg; + # Unfold multiline commands into one line + $script =~ s/\s*\\\n\s*/ /g;
Given that the first of these does what the comment says, won't there never be any \s after a \n?
Well spotted.
When I originally wrote the 2nd regex, I was not stripping leading whitespace, so the "\s*" was required. However, as you point out, it is redundant given the 1st regex.
