Probably what John Krahn had (since he boasted a similar : > method that cut out 2 chars). : : Yep. And that was very too much tiping when saying he gains 2 chars when : using -e flag since -M is the (only?) flag that can't be on the shebang line : (too late). I learned that during these days (among a lot of other things). I thought the shebang meant "pass to the executable plus flags the content of the rest of the file as if it was called from the shell prompt", but this turned to be false... do you know the exact actual meaning? I saw no mention of that exception (if it is so) in perldoc perlrun, do you know if is it documented somewhere? -- fxn
