Check if your language has a pipe operator. You may be able to do something like this:

  my $baz = GetFoo()
    |> GetBar
    |> GetBaz;

Thanks for the idea, I'll consider it.

One of the other reasons I use this style is because it allows me to port code easily between different languages.

For example, aside from the "my" keyword, I can pretty much copy and paste the same code between PHP and Perl.
