Don't use the -s switch to Perl if you're using a module to support command-line options. -s gets them first, and removes them from @ARGV (or rather, they never make it to @ARGV). If you print ${-graphical} in your program (with strict off), you'd see the value there. -- Jeff "japhy" Pinyan [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://www.pobox.com/~japhy/ RPI Acacia brother #734 http://www.perlmonks.org/ http://www.cpan.org/ ** Look for "Regular Expressions in Perl" published by Manning, in 2002 ** <stu> what does y/// stand for? <tenderpuss> why, yansliterate of course.
