Funny thing
I'm sure there's a good reason for it, but the code below gives a syntax
error. I think it ought to do what it looks like it ought to do. What's
the reason?
$foo = 'bar';
$foo =~ /bar/ and {print yes; print yes again;}
gives: syntax error at test line 2, near ; print
$foo = 'bar';
$foo =~ /bar/ and {print yes;}
gives: syntax error at test line 2, near ;}
$foo = 'bar';
$foo =~ /bar/ and {print yes}
prints yes as expected.
What's going on, eh?

It is the semicolon that fucks this one.
$foo = 'bar';
$foo =~ /bar/ and {print yes}
prints yes as expected.

You missed the :
Useless use of scalar ref constructor in void context at foo.pl line 2.
Odd number of elements in hash assignment at foo.pl line 2.
printing yes is a side affect :)
It thinks that it is a hash ref in a void where the first and only element
is the result of 'print yes' er 1 I think :)
