This whole thread seems to be out of order. Have you removed your original question and replaced it with your response to the replies you got? This is unfortunate as it bereaves all of us of the opportunity to add our own responses or to learn from the discussion.

    Basically, the whole OP has been rewritten so reponses now make no sense.

    Originally, when I replied to it, it had something along the lines of:

    "I found this code in 'Programming Perl':"
    ... short piece of code ...
    "Question about use of typeglobs in that code"

    I front-paged it because it seemed to be an interesting question about typeglobs which we haven't seen that often recently.

    It's been considered for "Restore original content.". Hopefully it'll be fixed soon.
