junk - use junk
use 5.010; use junk KnRlaCdiaXRlPSp0YWRwb2xlJ3dheD0qZGFyZSd5b3U9c3Vie3BvcH0K; no junk; say bite teh wax tadpole "monkey brains" if you dare "punkass", or alarm my $accountant;
The "junk" module performs two very different tasks depending on whether you type use junk or no junk.
use junk
no junk
import
use junk takes each of its arguments, performs some unescaping on each, decodes them as base64, and then passes them each to eval.
eval
The unescaping is as follows:
"_D0" => "0" "_D1" => "1" "_D2" => "2" "_D3" => "3" "_D4" => "4" "_D5" => "5" "_D6" => "6" "_D7" => "7" "_D8" => "8" "_D9" => "9" "_P" => "+" "_S" => "/"
This allows base64 to be encoded as Perl barewords (provided you're not in strict mode).
Called with no arguments, it switches off switch mode.
unimport
no junk is equivalent to saying use strict 'subs', 'vars'.
use strict 'subs', 'vars'
I don't know about you, but 'refs' is the only part of strict that I ever disable, so no junk just enables all of strict except 'refs'.
