I've come to feel a bit leery of depending too much n man-pages [aka perldoc for Windows folks. Too many I've seen are carelessy written. I think the thing that irritates me the most is to see variables coming into existence out of the blue in coding examles. I don't feel that they detract from the focus on the subject matter. They do set a bad example of neglect. Whatever the samples look like, it is always important to use strict on even seemingly inconsequential scripts. Don't underestimate the force of habit for good or ill. Happy hacking, Joseph -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
