Yeah, I'd imagine Perl development is pretty much the exact worst case for programming font ligatures both as a code developer and a font developer (accidentally creating ligatures the font never intended to exist in strange runs of symbols). Especially in how much Perl development exists that treats spaces as rare/unnecessary/optional.
- Shorel 5y agoEven without ligatures, Perl code makes you say: "WTF is this?" more often than any other language I have tried.
- WorldMaker 5y agoA classic joke I've heard is that Perl is the closest to a "write only" programming language that has escaped into mainstream usage.
