What I understand from perl is that it compiles the source first then executes everytime you run a perl srcipt (or program). -- Juan Miguel Cacho [EMAIL PROTECTED] Para�aque City, Philippines GnuPG Public Key Key ID 7B071F7F http://www.philonline.com/~chocovim/pancitmolo.pgp Drive safely. 90% of people are caused by accidents. _ Philippine Linux Users Group.
