-e program one line of program, strict is enabled by default With this case $*IN has the content from the pipe going into it. Personally I combine -e with one of the next two -n run program once for each line of input In this case your command line is repeated with $_ set to the next line of text from $*IN -p same as -n, but also print $_ at the end of lines And as it says, does the same as -n with an extra print. (Though from a quick test it looks to be a say?) Generally one of -e, -ne or -pe will cover what you want. -e if you need to work with more than one line at a time. -ne if you don't want to print all the things and -pe if you do (after modifications).
