Rather, use:
if ($input =~ /^y$/i)
unless you want "yellow" and "okay" to work too.

Easiest way is to do
print "Hit Y to continue: [N]";
$input = ;
if ($input =~ /y/i) {print "this way anything but Y or y will get
ignored\n";}
Also, if you just want Y and them to not have to hit ENTER, too, try using
getc.

Just check like:
chomp($input = ); # get input and remove the c/r
$input = uc($input);
if ( $input eq '' or $input eq 'N') {
# nothing entered, so becomes your N
# put what you want when default is entered
}
Wags ;)
