Shellwords is a thin wrapper around the shellwords.pl package, which
|
||
|
|
comes preinstalled with Perl. This module imports a single subroutine,
|
||
|
|
shellwords(). The shellwords() routine parses lines of text and
|
||
|
|
returns a set of tokens using the same rules that the Unix shell does
|
||
|
|
for its command-line arguments. Tokens are separated by whitespace,
|
||
|
|
and can be delimited by single or double quotes. The module also
|
||
|
|
respects backslash escapes.
