ChasO, I'm curious about something here. I noticed you put: use File::Find; use File::MMagic; Before the checkfile() call. In the actual working script where checkfile() will be only a minor part it is likely to be used infrequently. The rest of the script finds a regex in known places with file addresses supplied in the main body. That is the main purpose of the script. checkfile() would only be invoked by the user (by supplying one extra command line ARGV) on rare occasions. I wondered if having use File::Find; use File::MMagic; (which are only needed for checkfile() in the main body of the script would cause any kind of extra memory usage, or some other thing to slow down or otherwise effect the running of the main script when `checkfile()' is not invoked from the command line. -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://learn.perl.org/
