Tk bind

Hi - I'm having a problem with Tk bind. In my script, I want to do some processing at windows activation, so I coded: $MAIN = MainWindow->new (-title => 'Play .wav file'); $MAIN->bind ('' => sub {DoMainActivate ()}); ... and so on. The window works, but DoMainActi

Re: Very Basic Question: Open Interact Installation

So I ran "Perl MakeFile.pl" in the directory where I expanded the SPOPS module. It said it was "Writing MakeFile for Bundle::SPOPS" And now there is a new file in the dir called "MakeFile" What do I have to do to get the module installed into my perl\lib folder? From what I can tell I need SPOP

use Getopt::Std; and use strict;

Hi everyone, I have a problem using Getopt::Std. I depend on use strict for all my code, and when I use Getopt::Std all the variables it creates (to hold the command line option values) are flagged by strict because they have not been scoped. I get errors like this: Line 70: Global symbol "$o
