Open the file with a hex editor (eg 'ghex') or 'vim' or something like
that. It seems that you have a carriage return (aka CR or \r) before
the closing " character. If there is a CR there, it will move the
carriage (think of an old line printer or typewriter) back to the
beginning of the line before printing the next character (which ends
up overwriting the character that used to be in column 1).

[Perl] combines all the worst aspects of C and Lisp: a billion different
sublanguages in one monolithic executable.
It combines the power of C with the readability of PostScript.
