Perl

This plugin adds perl useful aliases/functions.

To use it, add perl to the plugins array in your zshrc file:

plugins=(... perl)

Perlbrew activation

If the plugin detects that perlbrew hasn't been activated, yet there is an installation of it in $PERLBREW_ROOT, it'll initialize by default. To avoid this behaviour, set ZSH_PERLBREW_ACTIVATE=false before source oh-my-zsh.sh in your zshrc.

Aliases

| Aliases | Command | Description | | :---------- | :----------------- | :------------------------------------- | | pbi | perlbrew install | Install specific perl version | | pbl | perlbrew list | List all perl version installed | | pbo | perlbrew off | Go back to the system perl | | pbs | perlbrew switch | Turn it back on | | pbu | perlbrew use | Use specific version of perl | | pd | perldoc | Show the perl documentation | | ple | perl -wlne | Use perl like awk/sed | | latest-perl | curl ... | Show the latest stable release of Perl |

Functions

• newpl: creates a basic Perl script file and opens it with $EDITOR.

• pgs: Perl Global Substitution: pgs <find_pattern> <replace_pattern> <filename> Looks for <find_pattern> and replaces it with <replace_pattern> in <filename>.

• prep: Perl grep, because 'grep -P' is terrible: prep <pattern> [<filename>] Lets you work with pipes or files (if no <filename> provided, use stdin).

Requirements

In order to make this work, you will need to have perl installed. More info on the usage and install: https://www.perl.org/get.html
