Re^2: do-until: Can't "next" outside a loop block.

Thank You, marquezc329. Of course I could - but I have found the misbehave as I supposed and therefore gave my question. PS I think PERL's manuals are very cramped. - Written for the people who are the language developers rather than its users. - IMO.

I haven't contributed much at all to the Perl development; I think maybe a POD patch or two, and several bug reports over the years. I'm not a developer of Perl. But as a user, I do consider Perl's POD to be Perl's second "killer app", right behind the CPAN. The POD may be dense at times. perlintro really shouldn't be, if you've got experience programming in some language. Like with most things, comprehending the documentation is one of those things that gets easier the more you work with it. Dave	[reply]
