On the other hand, there are lots of good reasons for doing that *other* than idle; 1500 line perl scripts being one of them :-). More seriously, you should ask this question on a perl list. Look around www.perl.org for help. You might also try doing "man perldebug" if you're not familiar with the perl debugger. <mike To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message
