Re: EOF in string

~~i think it looks like the problem is the missing space between print and << .~~

Update : I was wrong. Per the below, the space is not needed. I did download and test this, and the code works fine on my Windows machine. (Win98/Cygwin Bash/ActiveState 5.6.1). What kind of machine was this runing on ?

$ perl -e 'do() || ! do() ;'
Undefined subroutine &main::try

Did you try this out? The `<<` operator does not need to be disambiguated with whitespace, as the following code fragment shows: `#! /usr/bin/perl -w use strict; print STDOUT<<text; foo bar text` [download] produces: `foo bar` [download] Oops, uploaded the wrong fragment. I tested with an explicit file handle and without. Although for the sake of completeness I guess I should leave both up `#! /usr/bin/perl -w use strict; print<<text; foo bar text` [download] -- `g r i n d e r just another bofh print@_{sort keys %_},$/if%_=split//,'= & *a?b:e\f/h^h!j+n,o@o;r$s-t%t#u';`	[reply] [d/l] [select]
