How do I specify string references in perl mode and not make Emacs dizzy?
I need to use references to (constant) strings in Perl. If I write:
my $a = \'test';
print $$a;
Emacs (23.3.1) perl-mode assumes a line starts with a second apostrophe and fills in padding and markup. Using double quotes ( "
) doesn't change this.
How can I get around this without using additional variables or switching to cperl mode, which I find quite "loud"?
