I'm seeing the following error with FVWM 2.6.8 and Perl 5.26.1 when using the "." preprocessor function as described on this manpage: http://www.fvwm.org/documentation/manpages/FvwmPerl.html
Error: Unescaped left brace in regex; marked by <-- HERE in m/\% P <-- HERE ( .*? ) } \%/ at /usr/local/fvwm2/2.6.8/libexec/fvwm/2.6.8/FvwmPerl It appears that FvwmPerl is using a deprecated syntax of unescaped curly braces which has become a fatal error in Perl 5.26. The above issue does not occur with Perl 5.20.1. Is this a known issue? I looked at the source code for fvwm 2.6.9 and it seems to have to same issue. Thanks, Lance
