What was wrong with the original CGI query string parser?

Well, as I have hinted elsewhere, in this case the distinction that was
hidden by my OldTimer's disease was that a scalar is not the same thing
as a list containing one scalar.
Many thanks to Joachim, MSG, and John for giving my spinning wheels
a little helpful shove.
I still don't understand the third parameter. I thought I had read
that it meant split off that many and ignore the rest.

The man who says, "I can do it!" may sometimes fail.
The man who says, "Impossible!" will never succeed.

Wouldn't you know, now that I know how to make it work,
I've discovered I don't need that sub after all. :-)

I've noticed lately that the paranoid fear of computers becoming
intelligent and taking over the world has almost entirely disappeared
from the common culture. Near as I can tell, this coincides with
the release of MS-DOS.

Message-Id: <SaTFf.12144$1e5.302723@news20.bellglobal.com>
This is about the hypocrite known as Keith Keller. A number of
people have complained about a rash of people including PGP headers
in the bodies of their posts. It's like a little club. It annoys
the hell out of people, but they won't stop iti and they won't bury
the stuff in their headers. Here is what the hypocrite Keller
posted in alt.os.linux.slackware:

This is totally false.

It appears that Mr. Keller wants to kiss the asses of those in
comp.lang.perl.misc but he is perfectly willing to shit all over
those in alt.os.linux.slackware.
Note that the hypocrite actually buries his PGP in his headers in
a.o.l.s. but he advises other posters not to do so.

Yes, it depends on your audience. You kiss the asses of some, where
you need their knowledge, while you annoy others because a few of
your friends also wish to annoy posters in a.o.l.s.
Keith Keller is a coward, a troll, and a hypocrite.
cordially, as always,

use Tie::IxHash::Easy;
(I sat down and wrote my own module to do this, then I realized I should
have searched CPAN first. Sure enough, there it was, almost identical to
mine.)
