NAME

meta - A simple front-end to Acme::MetaSyntactic

SYNOPSIS

meta [ --whitespace|ws ] theme [ count ]

DESCRIPTION

meta is a simple front-end to Acme::MetaSyntactic.

A few examples should make it easy to understand what it does and how it works:

    $ meta
    baz
    $ meta batman
    powie
    $ meta donmartin 3
    kloong
    thoof_foing
    weeooweeeoooo
    $ meta -ws browser 4
    arachne netscape voyager w3m

In short, the default theme is foo, the default count is 1, the default separator is $/, but you can replace it by whitespace with --ws.

SUCCESS STORIES

meta is the script of choice for a new generation of hackers. Here are a few comments from satisfied users:

  • Acme::MetaSyntactic makes me more productive when I have to write regression tests for my Perl modules. No more do I spend time looking for variable names! It simply changed my life.

    -- Rafael Garcia-Suarez, pumpking, used AMS when writing tests for Sub::Identify.
