I agree that it would be better to drop this "feature" of Perl. It is probably never used, and probably useless (I would rather use the features from the shell if I need a pipe). If this is modified, "-" must still be supported as being regarded as stdin (this one is normally safe, and at least developers should already be aware of it). -- Vincent Lefèvre <vinc...@vinc17.net> - Web: <https://www.vinc17.net/> 100% accessible validated (X)HTML - Blog: <https://www.vinc17.net/blog/> Work: CR INRIA - computer arithmetic / AriC project (LIP, ENS-Lyon)
