in reply to Re: SOS
in thread Need help understanding legacy code with forking (was : SOS)

$datdir is in fact 'magically' created - by Perl. There was plenty of code to work with in the root node, so this comment of yours, besides being mostly wrong, looks peevish at best.

It's hard not to notice that your nodes often appear in the Worst Nodes section. Do you understand why, or even care?

Update: While I'm not sorry I posted this follow-up, I'd like to ask that people hold off on downvoting BUU's node. It doesn't deserve to go any lower, IMO.

Replies are listed 'Best First'.

      Don't worry about that right now. You can follow the link in my other node if you're curious.

      I take that back, then. I was more concerned about the indenting, which in this case made it look as though all the code was part of the foreach {} loop.

      Yes, though your best bet is to try the PerlMonks Chatterbox. You can almost always find someone there who is willing to help out.
