OK, now don't laugh so hard you fall off your chairs! I see the "#!/usr/bin/perl -w" at the top of all programs. I have read it tells perl where to run the program. This information I assume refers to a *nix box directory structure. I am using windows and using activeperl I think that it may mean I should use #!c:/perl -w, or am I completely lost here?
Does the #! command mean anything in windows/activeperl programing? c:/perl is where it is located on my machine, or do I just do it like everyone else for standards sake? I can not imagine anyone using a *nux box wanting my programs! Thanks for your help in advance RMW p.s. - I hope you didn't hurt yourselves to badly falling off your chairs. ----------------------------------------------------------------- Robert Mark White a really new still wet behind the ears, squeekie clean perl newbie! markwhite28 at comcast dot net ----------------------------------------------------------------- --- Outgoing mail is certified virus free by AVG Anti-Virus System Version 6 Checked by AVG anti-virus system (http://www.grisoft.com).
