when I read

> The filehandle stays connected to it even if the file name changes

I said: oh what good news! But when I tried it appears to behaves differently on MSWin32: I suddendly get Permission denied at writetorenamed.pl line 13. after had printed 1 or 2 and the file get not renamed ;(

perl writetorenamed.pl

Printed: 1.
Printed: 2.
Permission denied at writetorenamed.pl line 13.
Printed: 3.
Printed: 4.
Printed: 5.
Printed: 6.
Printed: 7.
Printed: 8.
Printed: 9.
Printed: 10.
