Category: MacPerl Application Group: Release 5.6.1r* Status: Open Resolution: None Priority: 5 Submitted By: John (hostile17) Assigned to: Nobody/Anonymous (nobody) Summary: Quit And Abort Doesn't. Initial Comment: I have a script which runs in a loop like: while($finish !=1){ [print some stuff] [wait for STDIN to $input] if($input eq "q\n"){ $finish = 1; } else { [do something else] } } and the *only* way it can be quit is by typing q. It can't be aborted with Command-period: MacPerl contiunes to run and has to be force-quit. If MacPerl is quit with the script still running, the same happens: the "Quit (and abort current Perl script)?" dialog comes up, but it doesn't quit and it doesn't abort. Is this a bug? Apologies if it isn't, or if this has been mentioned. I can't see it in the current list. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- You can respond by visiting: https://sourceforge.net/tracker/?func=detail&atid=107940&aid=636926&group_id=7940
