I understand the use case for that option is piping a mail or news message to `perl -x` to run a script contained within it. If that use case is to be handled, it pretty much does need to be able to be triggered from the command line, even if not with a single-char option. I'd be in favour of either explaining why this ability is not considered valuable (if that is indeed the case), or (preferably) restoring a simple command-line-accessible way of achieving the same thing. -- Aaron Crane ** http://aaroncrane.co.uk/
