I just did man perlrun and got the following output in the synopsis
section:

       perl [ -sTtuUWX ]      [ -hv ] [ -V[:configvar] ]
            [ -cw ] [ -d[t][:debugger] ] [ -D[number/list] ]
            [ -pna ] [ -Fpattern ] [ -l[octal] ] [ -0[octal/hexadecimal] ]
            [ -Idir ] [ -m[-]module ] [ -M[-]'module...' ]      [ -P ]
            [ -S ]      [ -x[dir] ]      [ -i[extension] ]      [ -e 'com-
       mand' ] [ -- ] [ programfile ] [ argument ]...       [ -C [n^Hnu^Hum^Hm-
^H-
       b^Hbe^Her^Hr/^H/l^Hli^His^Hst^Ht] ] ]>

What are all those ^H characters about?!

Thanks,

   Julian
