STDIN, STDOUT, etc are emulated by celib only partially, so, sorry, no
luck, this is port limitation!

STDOUT is mirrored to file in a file system, which is also not good.

So this particular aspect is not suitable for learning Perl behaviour.

My advice is, for example, using __DATA__ file, or even just initialize
your experimental data within program itself...

@lines = <DATA>;
print @lines;
__DATA__
foo bar fluffy
