Re: Copy a builtin sub to a different name and then override

After reading perlsub#Overriding-Built-in-Functions

> To unambiguously refer to the built-in form, precede the built-in name with the special package qualifier CORE:: . For example, saying CORE::open() always refers to the built-in open()

You should probably simply call CORE::sleep()

Have you tested if CORE::GLOBAL::sleep() even exists before overriding? *

You should probably simply call CORE::sleep() yep, that worked! The builtin sleep() cam be accessed via `CORE::sleep()`. I have posted the code under another comment. Many Thanks!	[reply] [d/l]
