real simple perl script for my own whitespace lang

On: New Whitespace-Only Programming Language

I suck at perl, but after reading this, I wrote this quick hack.
It counts characters in a line, and uses that as the character in the program.
Just tested my 'hello world' program (which I won't bother posting, since it is a bunch of white space)

$prog = "";
while() {
chop();
$prog = sprintf("%s%c", $prog, length($_));
}

eval $prog;
