Pony(3) User Contributed Perl Documentation Pony(3) NNNNAAAAMMMMEEEE Pony - An encoding scheme for Silly People SSSSYYYYNNNNOOOOPPPPSSSSIIIISSSS use Pony; print "Hello world"; DDDDEEEESSSSCCCCRRRRIIIIPPPPTTTTIIIIOOOONNNN The first time you run a program under `use Pony', the module removes all that nasty text stuff from your source file, turning it into a lovely ASCII-art rendition of a pony. In the spirit of other london.pm modules, the ASCII-art will consist entirely of the characters matching /[buffy]+/i, thus fulfilling Greg, Leon and Dave's fantasy of seeing Buffy riding a Pony. DDDDIIIIAAAAGGGGNNNNOOOOSSSSTTTTIIIICCCCSSSS `Can't pony '%s'' Pony couldn't access the source file for modification. `Can't unpony '%s'' Pony couldn't access the source file for execution. BBBBUUUUGGGGSSSS Your file should not consist of more than about 5000 characters, cos the image will only scale down, not up. AAAAUUUUTTTTHHHHOOOORRRR David Cantrell This is based on Leon Brocard's 'Buffy' module and inspired by Damian Conway's brief talk on his Bleach module.
