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. |
