Perl special variable cheat sheet

Hi all,

Again this will be a post for the perl lover.
Recently I was browsing, I  came across the blog of Peteris Krumins blog. The blog has list of interesting article concerning Perl, awk and sed.

One of the article, that attracted my regex mind was his Perl special variable cheat sheet. His 4 page cheat sheet is really easy and collate all the special variable, you may  require play code golf. (I really did not know , Perl has that many special variable)
You can download the cheat sheet here  or from the original link.

Perl vs perl

The following discussion is an expansion on a question and answer which can be found in the perlfaq1 page of Perl's documentation, namely:
What's the difference between "perl" and "Perl"?
Sometimes you'll see "Perl" written, with a capital P, sometimes "perl", sometimes even PERL.
Confused? Not to worry, Israel.pm to the rescue :-)
The rules are actually quite simple:

• "Perl" should be used when one is writing about the language, for example:
  

  Perl is a language optimized for scanning arbitrary text files, extracting information from those text files, and printing reports based on that information. It's also a good language for many system management tasks. The language is intended to be practical (easy to use, efficient, complete) rather than beautiful (tiny, elegant, minimal).

• "perl" should be used when one is writing about the executable which interprets and compiles the Perl code, for example: the perl executable can usually be found at /use/bin/perl on Unix/Linux systems, or on c:\Perl\bin\perl.exe on Windows systems.
• The above two usage forms are not rigidly adhered to, even in Perl's documentation, but in any case you should never use "PERL".
  "PERL" is a backronym, so unless you are going to use it as a joke, don't. It is way overused and abused, and it is time to put it to rest.

There's a famous saying, attributed to Tom Christiansen, which says that Only perl can parse Perl
We'll leave you now to ponder these words of wisdom...
