I'm trying to write a portable echo for MakeMaker.  Everything's
fine except for echoing XML...

$ perl -wle "print [EMAIL PROTECTED]" "<foo>"
Can't open input file foo> as stdin
%RMS-F-SYN, file specification syntax error

I can't figure out how to escape < when its the first piece of input.
This works...

$ perl -wle "print [EMAIL PROTECTED]" " <foo>"'
 <foo>

but that alters the input.

So how do I escape a < on the VMS command line?
