    Anyone who tells you that you need to learn the most obscure and unreadable perl one-liners to be a True Linux User is full of shit.

Does anyone ever say that? When I hand out a line noisey incantation without much explanation it's usually something that would require a lot of explanation and in response to someone who sounds like they just want their problem to go away.
