- jcul 4y agoYup, I guessed the same, and indeed it explicitly states so in the blog post linked by another commenter. > trurl is a tool in a similar spirit of tr but for URLs. Here, tr stands for translate or transpose.
- obelos 4y agoThough it hardly gets any use because s/// is so much more flexible, Perl also has a tr/// builtin that replicates the behavior of the command line tool.
