There is a second use of 'head', which you shouldn't delete. So
instead, just get head.exe from the same place as the other two, or use
the following kind of statement:
my $line = do {
open FOO, "perl -V 2>&1 |";
<FOO>;
};
Lastly, there's a 'sed' invocation that uses single-quoted arguments.
All it does is "print the input up to the first empty line" --- feel
free to implement it differently. (One way:
my @lines = split /\n/, `command | goes | here`;
$_ and print or last for @lines;
Both of these examples could do with some error checking.)

(yes, there's also a neater way to do this without split(). but it's
not a Perl class here)
