If you want anything but a given pattern, the best way to do it is
usually by using the !~ operator. Thus, if you have a pattern $foo,
this matches that pattern:

Of course, in both cases, I might mention that you can eliminate a \n in
a printed string by using the -l option in the shebang line. For your

Singling out the primary group wasn't a requirement for the Perl script,
as far as I recall. If I'm mistaken, then yeah, you might want to check
/etc/passwd for the primary group. If not, you'll get the prima

works identically to the groups command. Just thought I'd mention.

I don't think that has anything to do with it being FreeBSD. I'm typing

Of course, if you're going to call out of the Perl script to the id
