They are used to tell Perl to stop compiling the script at that point, because whatever follows is either: a) data to be read in to the script using the special DATA filehandle (see perldoc perldata) b) code that should be compiled only on demand (see perldoc SelfLoader) I would guess the latter is probably rarely used in this day of speedy processors and systems. -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
