Re^2: pp only to create executable when source has changed (pseudocode)

Sorry but

if (-m $source > -m $exe) {

where do I find the docs of this -m function?

UPDATE:

while (my ($source, $exe) = keys %files) {

did you really mean keys? not each?

my ($source, $exe) = splice(@ARGV, 0, 2);

and now your directly overwriting the loop vars?

Cheers Rolf

You raise valid points. `-m` should have been `-M`, `keys` should have been `each`, and that `splice` line shouldn't be there at all. My bad.	[reply] [d/l] [select]

Thanks for pointing me to -M, I didn't know that it exists. ~~OTOH it's practically useless because it only counts in days, it's very hard to imagine a valid usecase!~~ ~~(Beside maybe log-rotation on a daily basis)~~ forget my last remarks, wrong tests indicated complete days, but actually floats are fine!
