(You do not have to read this)
So Father Chrysostomos just modified perlop like this:
-=item qr/STRING/msixpo
+=item qr/STRING/msixpodual
Which got me thinking. That's a lot of letters, I wonder what words we
can make out of them (no I'm not suggesting we use them).
So I came up with this quick hack: https://gist.github.com/836425
Which when I pipe in the wamerican-huge dictionary from Debian gives
us these canditates:
$ perl msixpodual-words.pl </usr/share/dict/words | head -n 30

6 miaous xpdl
6 modius xpal
6 Dupaix msol
6 almous ixpd
6 dismal xpou
6 Musial xpod
6 poilus mxda
6 uplaid msxo
Maybe I can submit a patch in the beginning of the month immediately
following March that changes all our regex flag documentation to refer
to:
qr/STRING/xuplasmoid
