It would be like:

Alternative:
print( "test\n" ), last
if $color eq "blue";
I also see:
print( "test\n" ) and last
if $color eq "blue";
but always question that, because: what if print() fails?
(even if it can't fail,
Yes it CAN fail! For example:
select FH;
...
print( "test\n" ) and last
if $color eq "blue";
And somewhere between the select and the print the device that FH points
to becomes unavailable or full.
it is hard to read such ambiguous code, every
time again)
