My last Perl program - a Perl obfuscater that can eat its own tail

OK, I admit it. I used to program in Perl. And I liked it! My Perl programs were terse. If I could shave a line off, I did. In fact, I spent a non-trivial amount of time figuring the shortest possible programs that solved various problems. Often that meant resorting to various tricks and arcane features of Perl that nobody other than me would bother to understand. I took pride in that.
