All,

 

OK this probably is in the code (if not the manual), but I've a new error
from P::C.

 

Three-argument form of open used at line 351, column 4.  Three-argument open
is not available until perl 5.6.

 

I really need to sharpen my CPAN skills, and really I appreciate all the
kind responses today. I hope these questions make sense (because maybe I've
learned something today). ;}

 

1. I should have perl set to a minimum version, shouldn't I? What's the best
way to do that? (Makefile?)

 

2. Does the applicable P::C::Policy take the prereq'd version into account?

 

3. Another path might be to turn off both 2-parm and 3-parm P::C::Policies,
and then code a:

if ( perl_min_version )

3_parm_away

else 

2_parm_that_bad_boy.

 

Funny thing is, I haven't really updated my file writing primitives in .. a
decade? (Ouch)

 

Any advice appreciated! :}

 

Thanks!
