Having only added the semicolon to the bar script. My copies were exactly as you posted them.
Just for fun. Here's the output from my session:
devel# ./bar
Can't exec "./foo": No such file or directory at ./bar line 3.
Unknown 'strict' tag(s) '-1' at ./bar line 3.
BEGIN failed--compilation aborted at ./bar line 3.
devel#
Ahh, sure enough. No semicolon on line 2 -- gotta love that -w :-)
devel# ./bar
I am ./foo ()
Looks good. Lets try it as intended
devel# ./bar 123
I am ./foo (123)
devel#
I think I can safely reply now. :-)
Evil is good, for without it, Good would have no value

Are you posting in the right place? Check out Where do I post X? to know for sure.

Posts may use any of the Perl Monks Approved HTML tags. Currently these include the following:
<code> <a> <b> <big>
<blockquote> <br /> <dd>
<dl> <dt> <em> <font>
<h1> <h2> <h3> <h4>
<h5> <h6> <hr /> <i>
<li> <nbsp> <ol> <p>
<small> <strike> <strong>
<sub> <sup> <table>
<td> <th> <tr> <tt>
<u> <ul>
-
Snippets of code should be wrapped in
<code> tags not
<pre> tags. In fact, <pre>
tags should generally be avoided. If they must
be used, extreme care should be
taken to ensure that their contents do not
have long lines (<70 chars), in order to prevent
horizontal scrolling (and possible janitor
intervention).

or How to display code and escape characters
are good places to start.
