I do *not* advise removing the perl that comes with OS X. Or indeed building your own version of any part of the system and replacing it, on any OS. Vendor updates will not have been tested with your version. Instead, install perl in /usr/local/, and make sure that that comes first in your path. -- David Cantrell | http://www.cantrell.org.uk/david Pressure was growing last night for the global "war on terror" to be broadened to take in a wide range of other 'rogue emotions' including horror, shock and a general feeling of bewilderment about the state of the world. -- The Brains Trust
