PerlBuilder may not be intercepting the Ctrl-D/Z properly? John Pitchko Data Services Saskatchewan Government Insurance >>> "Mark M.

When I run the script, I get the initial sentence and enter my input in the I/O box, after that nothing happens. Either I can't seem to find the right combination to break out or the script is simply not running. Has anyone else who's used this book under similar circumstances come across this problem? Any guidance is appreciated. Thanks, Mark (Climbing the learning curve!)
