Sorry if I was unclear as to what I was after. Yes that was it.

And the bit about `perldoc bytes' was new ground for me too.

I never ran into that usage I guess.  Or never really thought to look
a `pragma'.

I thought, right along, that kind of syntax was reserved for pulling
up documentation of a module, like `perldoc File::Find' or whatever.
And have been confused about `pragma' as well.

You've helped clear that up for me too.... thanks.
