When I run this on 5.8.0 it gives out a 'Modification of a read only attempted...' Same with 5.6.1 as well, but not the case with 5.6.0 > $ perl -Mstrict -wle'my @a = qw/b c d/;(my $name = q/a b c d efg@@@@/) =~ s/@a//; >print $name' > a efg@@@@ 5.6.1 or 5.6.0 don't seem to be interpolating @+, but do so for other arrays. 5.8.0 interpolates @+ as well. Currently reading through perldoc perldelta. But I will stick with 'if you want to match a literal @, escape it' -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
