Not quite. If you use the special ``$line = <>;'' construct Perl will
indeed interpret the args on the command line as file names and read
from those. However if you explicitly say that you want to read from
STDIN like so: ``my $line = <STDIN>;'' you will not read from a file,
but from whatever your STDIN is connected to.
