dave at evesham$ perl -e 'map { $_,1 } "x"'
dave at evesham$ perl -e 'map { "$_" } "x"'
dave at evesham$ perl -e 'map { "$_",1 } "x"'
syntax error at -e line 1, near "} "x""
Execution of -e aborted due to compilation errors.
dave at evesham$ perl -v
This is perl, v5.8.6 built for i386-freebsd-64int
Anybody know why the third line shouldn't compile? Just seems weird.
