The goodness of it is that '|' is an on demand operator that can easily compose actions on potentially very large amount of data in a very memory and you can control the amount of consummed data in a friendly way. . Perlude gives a better '|' to Perl: as it works on scalars which can be both strings (like unix shell), numbers or references (like powershell).
