in reply to Re^3: Regarding STDOUT and indirect object notation for print
in thread Regarding STDOUT and indirect object notation for print

Okay, so even though STDOUT is, by default, a blessed IO::Handle object, and thus possesses the methods described, perl needs to be directed to the IO::Handle module via the 'use' statement so it can find the definitions for those methods. Does that sum it up correctly?
