But should this fail? In other words, is Perl on Linux correct or is Perl on Solaris correct? Am I trying to do something that I should not, or is Linux not doing something it should!? Thanks, Ted	[reply]

It looks like a perfectly legitimate split statement either way to me, and it did not fail on my Linux version (at least with the simple input string `"abs <def> ddd <www>"`). What input are you giving it? This is perl, v5.8.0 built for i686-linux-thread-multi Linux xxx.yyy.com 2.4.8-26mdk	[reply] [d/l]

Thanks for checking this out tall man. I tried it with your test case and it fails too. (That is it fails when using $line but not $_). My test cases were about the same as yours... Details on the linux system are... `Linux xxx.yyy.edu 2.4.18-19.8.0smp #1 SMP Thu Dec 12 04:36:25 EST 2002 + i686 i686 i386 GNU/Linux` [download] And perl... `This is perl, v5.8.0 built for i386-linux-thread-multi` [download] So could this be a bug? in i386-linux-thread-multi? Thanks!	[reply] [d/l] [select]
