It's fine, but should be unnecessary. If you're specifying input like "t/foo/bar.t", then an open( my $fh, "t/foo/bar.t" ) will work just fine, because Perl handles that invisibly, converting to 't\foo\bar.t' for Windows. > Also is there any problem with adding END{<>} or something similar, to > prevent windows from disappearing immediately after completion when scripts > are run by double-clicking in MS Windows? Sounds like an environment problem, not a program problem. I'd make it so that ALL Perl scripts had to have a little "Enter to return" at the end of 'em.
