feature - Perl pragma to enable new features
It is usually impossible to add new syntax to Perl without breaking some existing programs. This pragma provides a way to minimize that risk. New syntactic constructs, or new semantic meanings to older constructs, can be enabled by "use feature 'foo'...

re - Perl pragma to alter regular expression behaviour
'taint' mode When "use re 'taint'" is in effect, and a tainted string is the target of a regexp, the regexp memories (or values returned by the m// operator in list context) are tainted. This feature is useful when regexp operations on tainted data a...

This is a user-pragma. If you're very lucky some code you're using will know that you asked for less CPU usage or ram or fat or... we just can't know. Consult your documentation on everything you're currently using. For general suggestions, try reque...

CORE - Namespace for Perl's core routines
The "CORE" namespace gives access to the original built-in functions of Perl. The "CORE" package is built into Perl, and therefore you do not need to use or require a hypothetical "CORE" module prior to accessing routines in this namespace. A list of...

utf8 - Perl pragma to enable/disable UTF-8 (or UTF-EBCDIC) in source code
The "use utf8" pragma tells the Perl parser to allow UTF-8 in the program text in the current lexical scope. The "no utf8" pragma tells Perl to switch back to treating the source text as literal bytes in the current lexical scope. (On EBCDIC platform...

POSIX - Perl interface to IEEE Std 1003.1
The POSIX module permits you to access all (or nearly all) the standard POSIX 1003.1 identifiers. Many of these identifiers have been given Perl-ish interfaces. This document gives a condensed list of the features available in the POSIX module. Consu...

perlop - Perl operators and precedence
In Perl, the operator determines what operation is performed, independent of the type of the operands. For example "$x + $y" is always a numeric addition, and if $x or $y do not contain numbers, an attempt is made to convert them to numbers first. Th...
